Different Variational Approaches to the Relativistic two-center Coulomb Problem — •Hui Zhang, Hongjun Luo, and Dietmar Kolb — FB 18, Univ. Kassel
In a recent paper [1] we showed that the minimax approach gives a perfect
solution to the relativistic two-centre Coulomb problem for the light H2+
and the super-heavy Th2179+, free of any artefacts. However the non-linear
energy dependence makes the calculations very expensive. Now we succeeded in
variational linearizations where the well known kinetic balance may be viewed as
the simplest approximation: by doubling the space of variational parameters and
generating a systematic basis for the small spinor components the minimax values
may be reached with high precision however keeping it a linear eigenvalue
problem. Detailed comparisons with traditional 4-spinor and kinetic balance LCAO
are made and further applications given.
