Notes:
Simple density functional theory gives the following relation between the energy EZ, N of an ion of nuclear charge Z and N electrons, the potential V(0) created at the nucleus by the electronic cloud, and the chemical potential μ \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ E_{Z,N} = \frac{3}{7}(ZV(0) + N_\mu). $$\end{document}Using Hartree - Fock values for V(0) and μ, this equation has been tested in several isoelectronic series with 3 ≤ N ≤ 28. The importance of the term 3Nμ/7 increases as the degree of ionization increases.
