Atomic ionization potentials derived from theoretical calculations

A table of all the ionization potentials of the elements lithium through krypton is presented. These values have been derived from the theoretical results obtained, within the Hartree-Fock method and including all the relativistic corrections, for the total energies of the ground states. The characteristics of the theoretical method are briefly outlined. Comparison with available experimental data establishes the excellent predictive value of the theoretical results. (author)
