Open publisher page 5 citations

Abstract

Solutions to the many-dimensional analogue of the Schrödinger equation for the hydrogen atom are used as a starting point for solving the many-particle Schrödinger equation for systems with Coulomb interactions. It is shown that zeroth-order solutions can be improved by means of perturbation theory, which is simplified by means of a sum rule.
