Using variational Monte Carlo, we compare the features of 118 trial wave function forms for selected ground and excited states of helium, lithium, and beryllium in order to determine which characteristics give the most rapid convergence toward the exact nonrelativistic energy. We find that fully ant
The study shows how the formalism induced by the minimum mean deviation from statistical equilibrium may be effectively applied to more complex atoms to obtain trial wave functions compatible with a shell picture of the atom. The objective is not only to recover the experimental value of the ground-
