We consider a large neutral atom of atomic number $Z$, taking relativistic effects into account by assuming the dispersion relation $\sqrt{c^2p^2+c^4}$. We study the behavior of the one-particle ground state density on the length scale…
We consider a large neutral atom of atomic number $Z$, modeled by a pseudo-relativistic Hamiltonian of Chandrasekhar. We study its suitably rescaled one-particle ground state density on the Thomas--Fermi length scale $Z^{-1/3}$. Using an…
The strong Scott conjecture about the electron density at a distance 1/Z from an atomic nucleus of charge $Z$ and its generalization for molecules are proved. The density, suitably scaled, converges to an explicit limiting density as $Z \to…
We describe atoms by a pseudo-relativistic model that has its origin in the work of Chandrasekhar. We prove that the leading energy correction for heavy atoms, the Scott correction, exists. It turns out to be lower than in the…
We prove the convergence of the density on the scale $Z^{-1}$ to the density of the Bohr atom (with infinitely many electrons) (strong Scott conjecture) for a model that is known to describe heavy atoms accurately.
In heavy atoms and molecules, on the distances $a \ll Z^{-1/3}$ from one of the nuclei (with a charge $Z_m$) we prove that $\rho_\Psi (x)$ is approximated in $L^p$-norm, by the electronic density for a single atom in the model with no…

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…
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…
The purpose of this paper is to derive sharp asymptotics of the ground state energy for the heavy atoms and molecules in the relativistic settings, with the self-generated magnetic field, and, in particular, to derive relativistic Scott…
We consider relativistic many-particle operators which - according to Brown and Ravenhall - describe the electronic states of heavy atoms. Their ground state energy is investigated in the limit of large nuclear charge and velocity of light.…
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 review some older and more recent results concerning the energy and particle distribution in ground states of heavy Coulomb systems. The reviewed results are asymptotic in nature: they describe properties of many-particle systems in the…
We prove that the ground state energy of an atom confined to two dimensions with an infinitely heavy nucleus of charge $Z>0$ and $N$ quantum electrons of charge -1 is $E(N,Z)=-{1/2}Z^2\ln Z+(E^{\TF}(\lambda)+{1/2}c^{\rm H})Z^2+o(Z^2)$ when…
Consider $N$ bosons in a finite box $\Lambda= [0,L]^3\subset \bR^3$ interacting via a two-body nonnegative soft potential $V= \lambda \tilde V$ with $\tilde V$ fixed and $\lambda>0$ small. We will take the limit $L, N \to \infty$ by keeping…

We consider diatomic systems in which the kinetic energy of the electrons is treated in a simple relativistic model. The Born-Oppenheimer approximation is assumed. We investigate questions of stability, deducing bounds on the number $N$ of…
A new formula that relates the electron density at the nucleus of atoms,rho(0,Z), and the atomic number,Z, is proposed. This formula,rho(0,Z)=a(Z-bZ^(0.5))^3, contains two unknown parameters (a,b) that are derived using a least square…
We introduce a new relativistic energy density functional constrained by the ground state properties of atomic nuclei along with the isoscalar giant monopole resonance energy and dipole polarizability in $^{208}$Pb. A unified framework of…
Using a straightforward extension of the analysis of Lieb and Wu, we derive a simple analytic form for the ground state energy of a one-dimensional Hubbard ring in the atomic limit. This result is valid for an \textit{arbitrary} number of…
