Statistical Electron Density Distributions and Thomas-Fermi-Dirac Screening Functions for Neutral Atoms

Abstract

Statistical electron density distributions and Thomas-Fermi-Dirac (TFD) screening functions have been obtained for the 104 elements corresponding to integral atomic numbers $Z=2$ to $Z=105$, for 117 values of radial distance from the atomic center in each case. These results were calculated, in part, by using Thomas' solutions of the TFD equation in terms of the statistical electron distributions for nonintegral values of $Z$ and Jensen's boundary conditions. Values for argon and copper are given here. The complete set of tables for all 104 elements has been deposited with the American Documentation Institute Auxiliary Publications Project.
