Abstract:The first-order Hartree-Fock (HF) equations for the ground state of atomic systems with 4 to 10 electrons are deduced from the corresponding unrestricted (UHF) equations given previously. The second-order HF energies are given exactly and the third-order energies very accurately. Each atom is treated as a special case of a general scheme. The third-order energy of lithium is calculated very accurately, completing Linderberg's calculation.The H F ground state energies of atoms with 3-10 electrons are shown to d… Show more
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.
