title: Metastable bound (1,3)D(o) states below N=3 ionization threshold of He+.
abstract: The applicability of Ritz-variational principle for 3dnf ((1,3)D(o)) states lying between N=2 and N=3 ionization threshold of singly ionized helium is discussed in this communication. Probable existence of such a state for O(6+) within the planetary atmosphere in the polar regions of Jupiter is discussed.
