Picture change error correction of radon atom electron density

Abstract

The importance of the picture change error (PCE) correction in the quasirelativistic electron density of radon atom is presented. PCE correction is considered for the infinite order two-component (IOTC) and second order Douglas-Kroll-Hess (DKH2) wave functions. Implementation details of PCE correction of electron density are outlined. The result section presents the radial distributions of electron density ρ(r) and the 4πr(2)ρ(r) function of the radon atom in the nuclear region. The PCE corrected and contaminated DKH2, IOTC electron densities are presented and compared with the Dirac-Coulomb Hamiltonian and nonrelativistic electron densities. Besides, some additional effects in electron density and SCF energy are considered, such as spin-orbit coupling, the inclusion of the Gaunt term, and the finite nucleus model effects. The effects of p(2)Vp(2) and p(2)ρ(r)p(2) analytic integral classes within IOTC Hamiltonian and PCE correction of IOTC electron density are considered.
