We have carried out theoretical investigations of electron correlation effects on the atomic properties of the Ca atom trapped inside an attractive spherically symmetric potential well of an endohedral fullerene C$_{60}$ cluster. Relativistic coupled-cluster (RCC) theory has been employed to obtain electron correlation energy, ionization potential and dipole polarizability of this atom. We have also performed calculations using the Dirac-Hartree-Fock (DF), relativistic second-order many-body perturbation theory (RMBPT(2) method) and relativistic random phase approximation (RRPA) to demonstrate propagation of the correlation effects in these properties. Our results are compared with the reported calculations employing multi-configuration Hartree-Fock (MCHF) method in Phys. Rev. A {bf 87}, 013409 (2016). We found trends in correlation energy with respect to the potential depth are same, but magnitudes are very large in the relativistic calculations. We have also determined the differential and total cross-sections for elastic scattering of electrons from the free and confined Ca atoms using the electronic charge densities from the Dirac-Hartree core-potential (DFCP) and RCC methods to demonstrate role of potential depth in these properties.

We investigate ground state properties of singly charged chlorine (Cl$^-$) and gold (Au$^-$) negative ions by employing four-component relativistic many-body methods. In our approach, we attach an electron to the respective outer orbitals of chlorine
(Cl) and gold (Au) atoms to determine the Dirac-Fock (DF) wave functions of the ground state configurations of Cl$^-$ and Au$^-$, respectively. As a result, all the single-particle orbitals see the correlation effects due to the appended electron of the negative ion. After obtaining the DF wave functions, lower-order many-body perturbation methods, random-phase approximation, and coupled-cluster (CC) theory in the singles and doubles approximation are applied to obtain the ground state wave functions of both Cl$^-$ and Au$^-$ ions. Then, we adopt two different approaches to the CC theory -- a perturbative approach due to the dipole operator to determine electric dipole polarizability and an electron detachment approach in the Fock-space framework to estimate ionization potential. Our calculations are compared with the available experimental and other theoretical results.
The relativistic coupled-cluster (RCC) method is a powerful many-body method, particularly in the evaluation of electronic wave functions of heavy atoms and molecules, and can be used to calculate various atomic and molecular properties. One such ato
mic property is the enhancement factor (R) of the atomic electric dipole moment (EDM) due to an electron EDM needed in electron EDM searches. The EDM of the electron is a sensitive probe of CP-violation, and its search could provide insights into new physics beyond the Standard Model, as well as open questions in cosmology. Electron EDM searches using atoms require the theoretical evaluation of R to provide an upper limit for the magnitude of the electron EDM. In this work, we calculate R of 210Fr in the ground state using an improved RCC method, and perform an analysis on the many-body processes occurring within the system. The RCC method allows one to capture the effects of both the electromagnetic interaction and P- and T-violating interactions, and our work develops this method beyond what had been implemented in the previous works. We also perform calculations of hyperfine structure constants, electric dipole transition matrix elements, and excitation energies, to assess the accuracy of R and the success of our improved method. Finally, we present calculations of R with corrections due to Breit interaction effects, approximate quantum electrodynamics (QED) effects, and some leading triple excitation terms added perturbatively, to assess how significantly these terms contribute to the result. We obtain a final value of R = 799, with an estimated 3% error, which is about 11% smaller than a previously reported theoretical calculation.
A relativistic version of the effective charge model for computation of observable characteristics of multi-electron atoms and ions is developed. A complete and orthogonal Dirac hydrogen basis set, depending on one parameter -- effective nuclear char
ge $Z^{*}$ -- identical for all single-electron wave functions of a given atom or ion, is employed for the construction of the secondary-quantized representation. The effective charge is uniquely determined by the charge of the nucleus and a set of electron occupation numbers for a given state. We thoroughly study the accuracy of the leading-order approximation for the total binding energy and demonstrate that it is independent of the number of electrons of a multi-electron atom. In addition, it is shown that the fully analytical leading-order approximation is especially suited for the description of highly charged ions since our wave functions are almost coincident with the Dirac-Hartree-Fock ones for the complete spectrum. Finally, we evaluate various atomic characteristics, such as scattering factors and photoionization cross-sections, and thus envisage that the effective charge model can replace other models of comparable complexity, such as the Thomas-Fermi-Dirac model for all applications where it is still utilized.
Over time, many different theories and approaches have been developed to tackle the many-body problem in quantum chemistry, condensed-matter physics, and nuclear physics. Here we use the helium atom, a real system rather than a model, and we use the
exact solution of its Schrodinger equation as a benchmark for comparison between methods. We present new results beyond the random-phase approximation (RPA) from a renormalized RPA (r-RPA) in the framework of the self-consistent RPA (SCRPA) originally developed in nuclear physics, and compare them with various other approaches like configuration interaction (CI), quantum Monte Carlo (QMC), time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT), and the Bethe-Salpeter equation on top of the GW approximation. Most of the calculations are consistently done on the same footing, e.g. using the same basis set, in an effort for a most faithful comparison between methods.
The Dirac equation is used to provide a relativistic calculation of the binding energy of a hydrogen-like atom confined within a penetrable spherical barrier. We take the potential to be Coulombic within the barrier and constant outside the barrier.
Binding energies are derived for the ground state of hydrogen for various barrier heights and confining radii. In addition, it is shown that without the introduction of the principle quantum number $n$, all energy states of the confined relativistic hydrogen atom, determined by a single quantum number $k$, transfer into the known energy states of the free relativistic hydrogen atom as the radius of confinement becomes large.
