Abstract: | The internally folded density or reciprocal form factor B( r ) of many‐electron systems is tightly estimated from the knowledge of a small discrete set of values of the Compton profile J( q ). In doing so, the minimum cross‐entropy technique is employed. A numerical analysis of the approximations is carried out for the Helium atom. © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2002 |
