When studying the approximation of the wave functions of the \(H\)-atom by sums of Gaussians, Klopper and Kutzelnigg [KK] and Kutzelnigg [Ku] found an asymptotic of \(\exp [-\gamma \sqrt{n}]\). The results were obtained from numerical results and justified by some asymptotic expansions in quadrature
We express the hydrogen-type orbitals as integral transforms of Gaussian functions. The topographic features of the analytical expressions for the weight functions provide ways for the design of basis sets.
It was found, that contracted gaussian functions with scaled esponents lead to good binding energy curves of the hydrqen molecuIc and thnt the scaling parameters of the esponer?ts of gaussixn fultrtions are very similar to the scaling puameters of the Slnter orbitals, mainly for s-type functions. A
