OSTI ID:4063699
A techbique was developed for the calculation of excited state, one- electron wave functions based on the ThomasFermi statistical theory of the atom. The technique is applicable to heavy atoms for which Hartree type solutions are complex and difficult to obtain. The previously obtained Thomas-Fermi core potential for the cesium atom and a Heisenberg type polarization correction were used as a central field in the Schrodinger equation. Correction for penetration of the excited electron's orbital was made, and the Biermann-Lubeck approach for solving the wave equation was utilized. This allowed for the inclusion of a qualitative correction for exchange. The cesium atom's 7s excited state which was not obtained by any Hartree method was computed. (auth)
