Abstract

Calculations within the independent-electron approximation are often a prerequisite for those which include correlation effects. The assumption of independently moving electrons implies that the total wavefunction of the N-elec-tron system Φ(r1 σ 1, …, rNσN) can be written in the form of an antisymmetrized product of single-electron wavefunctions Φ i(riσi).
