A new approach in atomic configuration interaction calculations

A new type of potential function is derived from the atomic Hartree-Fock self- consistent potential which has almost identical occupied orbitals, but an adjustable set of unoccupied bound orbitals. Comparisons are made between the properties of this potential and the Hartree-Fock potential for trivalent praesodymium. It is shown that the use of the new potential introduces considerable simplifications into atomic configuration interaction calculations.
