Abstract

Following the work of Bloch and Ball et al. the theory of linear response of a hydrodynamic Thomas-Fermi model is extended to a general density dependent energy functional. The theory is applied to the Thomas-Fermi-Dirac-Weizsacker atom. Normal mode solutions and the atomic photoabsorption cross section are calculated.
