Analytic Atomic Wave Functions
Abstract
The wave functions for the atoms Be, B, C, N, O, F, Ne, are written as simple analytic expressions with several parameters. The best values of these parameters are then determined by the variation method. In the final wave functions the effective quantum number is very nearly two, the radial node is so small as to have little effect upon the charge distribution, the coefficient in the exponential is related to an empirical "mean effective charge."

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
