Boundedness and convergence of perturbed corrections for helium-like ions in ground states

Applying the improved Rayleigh SchrSdinger perturbation theory based on an integral equation to helium-like ions in ground states and treating electron correlations as perturbations, we obtain the second-order corrections to wavefunctions consisting of a few terms and the third-order corrections to energicity. It is demonstrated that the corrected wavefunctions are bounded and quadratically integrable, and the corresponding perturbation series is convergent. The results clear off the previous distrust for the convergence in the quantum perturbation theory and show a reciprocal development on the quantum perturbation problem of the ground state helium-like systems.

Nonvariational calculation of eigenenergies for ~3S states of helium-like systems

COMPARED with the popular hyperspherical coordinate scheme, the HHGLF method proposed by Deng and others has the advantages of rapid hyperradial convergence, analytical solution and huge basis set calculation. However, the problem of slow convergence in the hyperangle part still exists as other hyperspherical harmonics (HH) methods do. To solve the prob-

Variational Calculations for (ns2) 1Se, (np2) 1De and (nd2) 1Ge Resonance States for He Isoelectronic Sequences below the n = 2, 3 and 4 Hydrogenic Thresholds

This work presents results of the different parameters which characterize the nonrelativistic Hamilton operator for the helium atoms allowing us to solve the Schrödinger equation. The total energy is decomposed into three terms allowing to separate the kinetic energy, the electrons-nucleus interaction energy and the electron-electron interaction energy of the (2s2, 3s2 and 4s2) 1Se, (2p2, 3p2 and 4p2) 1De and (3d2 and 4d2) 1Ge resonance singlet states of the helium isoelectronic sequences. The states have been defined by using special forms of the Hylleraas type wave functions. The calculations have been carried out in the framework of the variational method using configuration interaction basis states with a real Hamiltonian. The agreement of the energy value of other states between the present theoretical values available in the literature is excellent. But as for the comparison of the kinetic energies, the electrons-nucleus energies interaction and the electron-electron interaction energies, we note a slight difference with the theoretical values common in literature.

Variational Calculation of the Doubly-Excited States Nsnp of He-Like Ions via the Modified Atomic Orbitals Theory

In this paper, we have declined the formalism of the method of the Modified Atomic Orbital Theory (MAOT) applied to the calculations of energies of doubly excited states 2snp, 3snp, and 4snp Helium-like systems. Then we also applied the variational procedure of the Modified Atomic Orbital Theory to the computations of total energies, excitation energies of doubly-excited states 2snp, 3snp, 4snp types of Helium-like systems. The results obtained in this work are in good agreement with the experimental and theoretical values available.

Energy Positions of the ^1,3D^eRydberg Series of the He-Like Ions Up to the <i>N</i>= 9 Threshold

The doubly excited states of helium-like ions are investigated using a combination of the no-linear parameters of Hylleraas and the β-parameters of screening constant by unit nuclear charge. Calculations are performed for total energies of low-lying doubly excited states (N = 2 - 9) in He-like ions up to Z = 10. The results obtained from the novel method are in good agreement with the available theoretical calculations and experimental observations.

Calculations Energy of the (<i>nl</i>²) ¹<i>L^π</i>Doubly Excited States of Two-Electron Systems via the Screening Constant by Unit Nuclear Charge Formalism

In this work, the total energies of doubly excited states (ns2) 1Se, (np2) 1De, (nd2) 1Ge, (nf2) 1Ie, (ng2) 1Ke, and (nh2) 1Me of the helium isoelectronic sequence with Z ≤ 10 are calculated in the framework of the variational method of the Screening Constant by Unit Nuclear Charge (SCUNC). These calculations are performed using a new wavefunction correlated to Hylleraas-type. The possibility of using the SCUNC method in the investigation of high-lying Doubly Excited States(DES) in two-electron systems is demonstrated in the present work in the case of the (nl2) 1Lπ doubly excited states, where accurate total energies are tabulated up to n = 20. All the results obtained in this paper are in agreement with the values of the available literature and may be useful for future experimental and theoretical studies on the doubly excited (nl2) 1Lπ states of two-electron systems.

Modified atomic orbital theory applied to the calculation of high-lying ₂(K,T)_n^±1,3P°rydberg series of he-like ions

The 2(1,0)n-1P°, 2(1,0)n +3P°, 2(0,1)n+1P°, and 2(0,1)n-3P° intershell Rydberg series of the helium-like ions are investigated in the framework of the modified Atomic Orbital Theory (MAOT). High-lying energy resonances of He and excitation energy of the he- lium-like Li+ up to n = 10 are tabulated. In addition, total energy positions for low-lying states (n1,3P° autoionizing states of two-electron systems.

Classical Dynamics of Muonic-Electronic Helium and Heliumlike Ions: The Allowance for the Eccentricity of the Muon and Nucleus Orbits

In the previous paper by one of us (hereafter paper I), the author considered Rydberg states of the muonic-electronic helium atom or helium-like ion and used the fact that the muon motion occurs much more rapidly than the electron motion. Assuming that the muon and nucleus orbits are circular, he applied the analytical method based on separating rapid and slow subsystems. He showed that the electron moves in an effective potential that is mathematically equivalent to the potential of a satellite orbiting an oblate planet like the Earth. He also showed that the “unperturbed” elliptical orbit of the electron engages in two precessions simultaneously: the precession of the electron orbit in the plane of the orbit and the precession of the orbital plane of the electron around the axis perpendicular to the plane of the muon and nuclear orbits. The problem remained whether or not the allowance for the ellipticity of the orbit could significantly change the results. In the present paper, we address this problem: we study how the allowance for a relatively low eccentricity ε of the muon and nucleus orbits affects the motion of the electron. We derive an additional, ε-dependent term in the effective potential for the motion of the electron. We show analytically that in the particular case of the planar geometry (where the electron orbit is in the plane of the muon and nucleus orbits), it leads to an additional contribution to the frequency of the precession of the electron orbit. We demonstrate that this additional, ε-depen- dent contribution to the precession frequency of the electron orbit can reach the same order of magnitude as the primary, ε-independent contribution to the precession frequency. Therefore, the results of our paper seem to be important not only qualitatively, but also quantitatively.

On the accuracy of the potential harmonic functions

The matrix elements of the correlation function between symmetric potential harmonics am simplified into the analytical summations of the grand angular momenta by dy using the recurrence and coupling relations of the potential harmonics. 'The correlation-function potential-harmonic and generalized-Laguerre-function method (CFPHGLF), recently developed by us, is applied to the S states of the helium-like systems for Z = 2 to 9. The results exhibit good convergence with the bases in tern of both the angular and radial directions. The final eigen-energies agree excellently with the best s-limits of the variational configuration interaction (CI) method for the involved low-lying S states. The accuracy of the potential harmonic (PH) expansion scheme is discussed relative to the exact Hylleraas CI results (HCI), and Hartree-Fock results. Moreover, suggestion is given for the future improvement of the PH scheme.

Correlation-function potential-harmonic and generalized Laguerre function method for directly solving Schrodinger equations of atoms

The potential-harmonic and generalized Laguerre function method (PHGLF) was modified into the correlation-function potential-harmonic and generalized Laguerre function method (CFPHGLF). The eigenenergies for 21S, 31S and 41S states of helium-like systems from the CFPHGLF are much more accurate than those from the previous PHGLF, but the eigenenergy for the 11S is not as good as that from the PHGLF method. The results indicate that the electron-nucleus cusp plays more important role than the electron-electron cusp and the cluster structure for the loosely bound excited states, and that the electron-electron cusp is absolutely essential for the tightly bound ground state.
