โฆ Synopsis
In this nofe we conader the mue of rtn ckctron's seIf~oulomb interaction (or self~ne~y) in a homo&eneous free electron gas We observe thnt, provided the gas is ehqe neurral and udimte in extent. tbc proper &f-energy contnbution yields a lowenng of Ihe total energy and does not modify the shape of the orbltals from which the parMe density is construcrcd In a self-conslsrent theory. when the orbItal states are Bloch-tic

## Crystal polarization energies are calculated at several temperatures for Xe. Kr. Ar and Ne and at several DreSSUreS for He. These results are used to estimate energies of the quasi-free electron staate from spktroscopic data for Xe, Kr. and Ar.
