The calculation of rapidly converging lower and upper bounds to the ground-state energy, E g , of hydrogenic atoms in superstrong magnetic fields (B^\0 9 G) has been an important theoretical problem for the past twenty-five years. Much effort has gone into reconciling the many different estimates for E g predicted by an assortment of techniques. On the basis of recently developed eigenvalue moment methods, a precise solution involving rapidly converging bounds to E g , for arbitrary superstrong magnetic field strengths, is now possible.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
