| dc.description.abstract | Electron-electron correlation forms the basis of difficulties encountered in many-body problems.
Accurate treatment of the correlation problem is likely to unravel some nice physical properties
of matter embedded in this correlation. In an effort to tackle this many-body problem, an exact
partition function for the correlation energy between two interacting states is proposed in this study.
Using this partition function, a model potential for a two-electron system is derived. The model
potential can accurately reproduce the singlet states of a singly excited neutral helium atom with
one of its electrons frozen in the 1s orbital. | en_US |
