Direct Derivation of the Schwinger Quantum Correction to the Thomas-Fermi Atom

Abstract

The Schwinger quantum correction to the classic Thomas-Fermi atom is directly derived by solving for the latter without recourse to a modeling after the harmonic oscillator potential and without solving for the particle density.
