Abstract

The "extended Overhauser model" [Overhauser, A. W. Can. J. Phys. 1995, 73, 683] for the calculation of the spherically and system-averaged pair density (APD) has been recently combined with the Kohn-Sham equations to yield realistic APD and correlation energies. In this work we test this approach in the high-density (weakly correlated) limit of the He isoelectronic series and of the Hooke's atom isoelectronic series. Unlike many of the commonly used energy functionals, the Overhauser approach yields accurate correlation energies for both series.
