Commentary on Allen & Kinght’s Response to the Löwdin Challenge
Foundations of Chemistry 8 (3):285-292 (2006)
Abstract
This commentary provides a critical examination of a recent article by Allen and Knight in which the authors claim to provide the long-sought explanation for the Madelung, or n + ℓ, n rule for the order of orbital filling in many-electron atoms. It is concluded that the explanation is inadequate for several reasonsAuthor's Profile
