Abstract
Solutions of the Fermi‐Thomas‐Dirac equation are given for 24 different elements. Both neutral atom and positive ion solutions are given. These results were obtained by evaluating the series expansion for the FTD function at small distances from the origin and by numerical integration of the differential equation at larger distances. The numerical solutions were done on the ENIAC.Keywords
