Abstract
The Hartree solution for the ground state of N much greater than 1 bosons p laced within a spherical impenetrable shell is calculated. The bosons are a ssumed to interact through Coulomb repulsive forces and therefore occupy a thin volume adjacent to the shell wall. The resulting density profile is co mpared with its parallel Thomas-Fermi solution for fermions.
