Limiting behaviour of atomic wave functions for large atomic number. IlI

Abstract

Results for the limiting screening number as N -> oo of an electron in the ( nl ) radial wave function of an atom with atomic number N , are extended to configurations including (4 s ), (4 p ) and (4 d ) electrons. The limiting slope of the screening number as a function of the mean radius of the wave function is given for the (4 s ) 2 (4 p ) 6 configuration.
