Hartree-Fock method for atoms

All the early work was concerned with atoms, with Sir William Hartree regarded as the father of the technique. His son, Douglas R. Hartree, published the definitive book, The Calculation of Atomic Structures, in 1957, and in this he derived the atomic HF equations and described numerical algorithms for their solution. Charlotte Froese Fischer was a research student working under the guidance of D. R. Hartree, and she published her own definitive book. The Hartree—Fock Method for Atoms A Numerical Approach in 1977. The Appendix lists a number of freely available atomie structure programs. Most of these can be obtained from the Computer Physics Communications Program Library.

Originally, Hartree-Fock atomic calculations were done by using numerical methods to solve the Hartree-Fock differential equations (11.12), and the resulting orbitals were given as tables of the radial functions for various values of r. [The Numerov method (Sections 4.4 and 6.9) can be used to solve the radial Hartree-Fock equations for the radial factors in the Hartree-Fock orbiteds the angular factors are spherical harmonics.
