9781333244804: Effective Two-Body Method for Two-Electron Atoms (Classic Reprint)

Synopsis

This book delves into the complex world of two-electron atomic systems, particularly focusing on the helium atom. The author explores the challenge of finding accurate solutions to the Schrödinger equation that governs the behavior of these systems, a problem that has captivated physicists for decades. Building on the work of previous researchers like Hylleraas, the author introduces a novel approach: the effective two-body method. This method simplifies the problem by assuming a particular form for the wave function, making it easier to solve the Schrödinger equation. The book examines the limitations of this method and explores how it can be improved by introducing free parameters. The author delves into the implications of the Pauli Exclusion Principle for the wave function and its effect on the accuracy of the calculations. Throughout the text, the author explores various techniques for refining the two-body method, including the introduction of additional variables and the use of numerical solutions. The book concludes by highlighting the potential of the effective two-body method to provide valuable insights into the behavior of two-electron atomic systems and to serve as a stepping stone for further research in this area.
