The shell structure of atoms

Russell J. Boyd

Abstract

The radial density D(r) is computed from analytical Hartree-Fock wavefunctions for the first 54 elements of the periodic table. The calculations exhibit the familiar picture of spherical shells of electron density for the first three periods but for the fourth and fifth periods an ambiguity in the shell structure is observed. This ambiguity is analysed in terms of orbital contributions.
