Let E(B,Z,N) denote the ground state energy of an atom with N electrons and nuclear charge Z in a homogeneous magnetic field B. We study the asymptotics of E(B,Z,N) as $B\to \infty$ with N and Z fixed but arbitrary. It is shown that the…

We consider a large atom with nuclear charge $Z$ described by non-relativistic quantum mechanics with classical or quantized electromagnetic field. We prove that the absolute ground state energy, allowing for minimizing over all possible…

In this paper we study the large-Z behaviour of the ground state energy of atoms with electrons having relativistic kinetic energy sqrt(p^2c^2+m^2c^4)-mc^2. We prove that to leading order in Z the energy is the same as in the…

Atomic-like systems in which electronic motion is two dimensional are now realizable as ``quantum dots''. In place of the attraction of a nucleus there is a confining potential, usually assumed to be quadratic. Additionally, a perpendicular…

We compute the ground state energy of atoms and quantum dots with a large number N of electrons. Both systems are described by a non-relativistic Hamiltonian of electrons in a d-dimensional space. The electrons interact via the Coulomb…

We give the asymptotic behavior of the ground state energy of Engel's and Dreizler's relativistic Thomas-Fermi-Weizs\"acker-Dirac functional for heavy atoms for fixed ratio of the atomic number and the velocity of light. Using a variation…

We study atomic ground state energies for neutral atoms as the nuclear charge $Z$ is large in the no-pair formalism. We show that for a large class of projections defining the underlying Dirac sea -- covering not only the physical…

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

The ground state properties of the two-electron atom with atomic number $Z\geq 2$ in the spherical vacuum cavity with general boundary conditions of "not going out" are studied. It is shown that for certain parameters of the cavity such…

We study the ground state properties of an atom with nuclear charge $Z$ and $N$ bosonic ``electrons'' in the presence of a homogeneous magnetic field $B$. We investigate the mean field limit $N\to\infty$ with $N/Z$ fixed, and identify three…

We consider asymptotics of the ground state energy of heavy atoms and molecules in the self-generatedl magnetic field. Namely, we consider $$ H=((D-A)\cdot\boldsymbol{\sigma})^2-V $$ with $$V=\sum_{1\le m\le M} \frac{Z_m}{|x-y_m|}$$ and a…

We show that the $N$-electron Hamiltonian $H(N, Z)$ with the total nuclear charge $Z$ has no normalizable ground state if the ground state energy $E(N, Z)$ satisfies $E(N, Z)= E(N-1, Z)$ for $Z=N-1$. For anions $\mathrm{He}^-,…

Gravity is the weakest of all four known forces in the universe. Quantum states of an elementary particle due to such a weak field is certainly very shallow and would therefore be an experimental challenge to detect. Recently an…
