Abstract

The values of $S(1)$ and $L(1)$, i.e., quantities related to straggling of particles given by Dehmer, Inokuti, and Saxon [Phys. Rev. A 12, 102 (1975)], are inaccurate within the Hartree-Slater model used in that work. Those values are too large by as much as several percent because of an overestimation of contributions from high excitation energies. Revised values of $S(1)$ and $L(1)$, accurate to about 1%, are presented and discussed in greater detail. They are now in closer agreement with other values of N, O, Ne, and Ar found in the literature. All the other $S(\ensuremath{\mu})$ and $L(\ensuremath{\mu})$ values given by Dehmer, Inokuti, and Saxon remain unchanged.
