## Abstract The electron density and the Fermi hole of the ground states of the atoms He, Be, Ne, Mg, Ar, Ca, Zn, and Kr are studied in the restricted HartreeβFock approximation. The use of single Slaterβtype orbitals for the free atoms is also discussed.
The use ofa pseudopotential to replace the core electron density within electronic structure calculations of Kohn-Sham type is proposed. An heuristic derivation of such a potential is given. Within the local exchange-correlation scheme, the pseudopotential employed is precisely equivalent to solving
