Outer crusts of neutron stars and interiors of cool white dwarfs consist of bare atomic nuclei, arranged in a crystal lattice and immersed in a Fermi gas of degenerate electrons. We study electrostatic properties of such Coulomb crystals,…
Excited states are stationary localized solutions of the Gross--Pitaevskii equation with a harmonic potential and a repulsive nonlinear term that have zeros on a real axis. Existence and asymptotic properties of excited states are…
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…
