Kohn & Sham: making density-functional calculations practical

Developed self-consistent equations that organize electronic-structure calculations around an effective single-particle system.

What is recorded here?

Developed self-consistent equations that organize electronic-structure calculations around an effective single-particle system.

Source-linked catalogue note. A detailed explanatory guide has not yet been prepared for this entry.

Scientific scope

This computational construction builds on the separately recorded density theorem. Approximate functionals limit practical predictions.
