Convergence Rates from Yukawa to Coulomb Interaction in the Thomas-Fermi-von Weizsäcker Model

We establish uniform convergence, with explicit rate, of the solution to the Thomas--Fermi--von Weizsäcker (TFW) Yukawa model to the solution of the TFW Coulomb model, for general condensed nuclear configurations. As a consequence, we show the convergence of forces from the Yukawa to the Coulomb model. These results rely on an extension of Nazar \& Ortner (2015) to the Yukawa setting. Auxiliary results of independent interest shown also include new existence, uniqueness and stability results for the Yukawa ground state.
