Ground State Energies of Helium-Like Ions Using a Simple Parameter-Free Matrix Method

This study aims to use hydrogenic orbitals within an analytic and numeric parameter-free truncated-matrix method to solve the projected Schrödinger equation of some Helium-like ions (3 ≤ Z ≤ 10). We also derived a new analytical expression of the ion ground state energies, which was simple and accur...

description This study aims to use hydrogenic orbitals within an analytic and numeric parameter-free truncated-matrix method to solve the projected Schrödinger equation of some Helium-like ions (3 ≤ Z ≤ 10).

The standard matrix method was applied, where the wave function of the ions was expanded in a finite number of eigenvectors comprising hydrogenic orbitals. The Hamiltonian of the systems was calculated using the wave function and diagonalized to obtain their ground state energies. The results showed that a simple analytic expression of the ground state energies of He-like ions was successfully derived.
