Relativity atomic structure calculation

Fig. 7.78 Linear relation of the quadmpole splitting A q = ( jl)eqQ (1 + j /3)l/2 and the isomer shift b for aurous (a) and auric (b) compounds. Also included is a correlation with the relative change in electron density at the gold nucleus, Ali/r(o)P, as derived from Dirac-Fock atomic structure calculations for several electron configurations of gold. An approximate scale of the EFG (in the principal axes system) is given on the right-hand ordinate (from [341])...

I should begin by giving some reasons why "relativistic effects in many-body systems" is a timely subject for discussion. The basic physics that I will dicuss has been known for many years, of course. There have been changes recently, however, in our ability to investigate computationally the implications of these theories, and in our ability to study experimentally systems v ere relativistic effects are prominent. On the computational side, it is only relatively recently that computer codes for relativistic atomic structure calculations have become widely available. These codes tend to be rather complicated and time consuming to run, and it is again only recently that... 

The function/( C) may have a very simple form, as is the case for the calculation of the molecular weight from the relative atomic masses. In most cases, however,/( Cj will be very complicated when it comes to describe the structure by quantum mechanical means and the property may be derived directly from the wavefunction for example, the dipole moment may be obtained by applying the dipole operator. 

Poly(aminoborane) has a relatively simple structure, as shown in Figure 9. Jacquemin and co-workers [63] performed a comprehensive set of calculations to investigate the infrared spectra, vertical excitation energies, geometries, atomic charges and dipole moments as a function of conformation. A variety of theoretical methods were employed, including Hartree-Fock, MP2 and... 

There are four formula units of FeO in a perfect unit cell with the rock salt structure. The mass of these four units can be calculated from their relative atomic masses Fe, 55.85...
