Abstract

The asymptotic relation between the pressure with exchange in the Thomas–Fermi–Dirac atom model and the corresponding pressure without exchange in the Thomas–Fermi model for the case of low atomic number considered in the first paper of this series is generalized by including a correction corresponding to the first-order Coulomb contribution to the energy of the atom, in addition to the kinetic energy of the electrons alone. Comparison is made with numerical results obtained by direct solution of the Thomas–Fermi–Dirac equation.
