A self-consistent field solution for Buckminsterfullerene

We present a self-consistent field solution for the fullerene molecule. The approach combines Poisson's equation with the density of pi electrons deri ved within the first-order approximation of the many-body perturbation theo ry. This equation is solved analytically by considering a point structure o f the positive charges. It is found also that the pi electrons are confined , in majority, inside the shell. It must be stressed here that other result s recorded in the field predict that only less than half of all pi electron s are inside the shell.
