Translates Chapter 8 "Oddziaływanie van der Waalsa" (Van der Waals interactions) from Polish to English, following the pattern of previous chapter translations (PRs #30-37).

Changes Made

  • Chapter title: Translated to "Van der Waals interactions"
  • Section 8.1: Translated "Podstawowe własności" (Basic properties) - covering fundamentals of van der Waals interactions, quantum fluctuations, dipole interactions, and classical description
  • Section 8.2: Translated "Poprawki do funkcjonału energii" (Energy functional corrections) including:
    • Subsection 8.2.1: D2 and D3 methods (Grimme's approaches with damping functions and dispersion coefficients)
    • Subsection 8.2.2: TS method (Tkatchenko-Scheffler method and self-consistent screening approach)

Technical Details

  • All mathematical equations preserved unchanged
  • All LaTeX formatting maintained
  • All citations and references preserved
  • Technical terminology consistent with previous chapter translations
  • Translation spans lines 3461-3649 in book/main.tex

Notes

Code review identified two potential mathematical notation issues in equations (lines 3623 and 3634) that were present in the original Polish text and remain unchanged per translation scope.
