A Derivation of the $Z\to\infty$ Limit for Atoms

Quantum Physics 2007-06-13 v2

Abstract

Upper and lower bounds are derived for the ground-state energy of neutral atoms which for ZZ\to\infty both involve the limits of exact Green's functions with one-body potentials. The limits of both bounds are shown to coincide with the Thomas-Fermi ground-state energy.
