%0 Journal Article %T Hartree-Fock theory for pseudorelativistic atoms %A Anna Dall'Acqua %A Thomas £¿stergaard S£¿rensen %A Edgardo Stockmeyer %J Physics %D 2007 %I arXiv %R 10.1007/s00023-008-0370-z %X We study the Hartree-Fock model for pseudorelativistic atoms, that is, atoms where the kinetic energy of the electrons is given by the pseudorelativistic operator \sqrt{(pc)^2+(mc^2)^2}-mc^2. We prove the existence of a Hartree-Fock minimizer, and prove regularity away from the nucleus and pointwise exponential decay of the corresponding orbitals. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/0707.4612v1
