A. Gonzalez et al., PADE APPROXIMANTS FOR THE GROUND-STATE ENERGY OF CLOSED-SHELL QUANTUMDOTS, Physical review. B, Condensed matter, 56(24), 1997, pp. 15740-15743
Analytic approximations to the ground-state energy of closed-shell qua
ntum dots (number of electrons from 2 to 210) are presented in the for
m of two-point Pade approximants. These Padi approximants are construc
ted from the small- and large-density limits of the energy. We estimat
ed that the maximum error, reached for intermediate densities, is less
than or equal to 3%. Within the present approximation the ground stat
e is found to be unpolarized. [S0163-1829(97)00347-0].
