Green's Function Method for Quantum Corrections to the Thomas-Fermi Model of the Atom

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The thomas-fermi model of the atom developed historically from reasonable physical assumptions about the nature of an atomic system. Because, however, the development was not a systematic derivation from the many body schrsdinger equation, it was difficult to incorporate corrections for certain higher order effects. Thus.
