Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Effective Two-Body Method for Two-Electron Atoms
In the present note we wish to present same Observations on the non relativistic two-electron atomic system. We hope these may prove useful and stimulating to additional efforts to Obtain approximate eigenfunctions and eigenvalues. In particular, we examine the reducticn of the prbblem.to an effect1ve two-body' system, an idea that has been used in the corresponding three-body nuclear system, the triton [l] [2] A complete review of the extensive treatment of the two-electron atomic system, in particular the helium atom, may be fbund in the recent book of Bethe and Salpeter[3]. The variational fbrmulation of the problem, which is the basis of the present investigation, is reviewed here.
