Particle correlations in the generalized Thomas-Fermi approach

Particle correlations in the generalized Thomas-Fermi approach.

This paper presents the Thomas-Fermi approach generalized to consider the particle correlations in many-body systems with non-Coulomb interaction potentials. The key points of the generalization consist in using integral formulation and extracting the pair distribution function. The latter has been found to obey the integral equation which, in the classical limit, is reduced to the well-known e...

Variational approach to the Thomas-Fermi equation

By the semi-inverse method, a variational principle is obtained for the Thomas– Fermi equation, then the Ritz method is applied to solve an analytical solution, which is a much simpler and more efficient method. 2002 Elsevier Science Inc. All rights reserved.

On Avakumović’s Theorem for Generalized Thomas–fermi Differential Equations

For the generalized Thomas–Fermi differential equation (|x|x) = q(t)|x|x, it is proved that if 1 6 α < β and q(t) is a regularly varying function of index μ with μ > −α − 1, then all positive solutions that tend to zero as t → ∞ are regularly varying functions of one and the same negative index ρ and their asymptotic behavior at infinity is governed by the unique definite decay law. Further, an...
