This result is obtained through a comparison with Thomas-Fermi theory which, as a by-product, gives bounds on the screened nuclear potential and the radius of the minimizer. A key ingredient of the proof is a novel technique to control the particles in the exterior region, which also applies to the liquid drop model with a nuclear background potential."}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"date_updated":"2023-09-19T10:09:40Z","publisher":"Wiley-Blackwell","intvolume":"        71","author":[{"last_name":"Frank","first_name":"Rupert","full_name":"Frank, Rupert"},{"last_name":"Phan Thanh","first_name":"Nam","full_name":"Phan Thanh, Nam","id":"404092F4-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87"},{"last_name":"Van Den Bosch","full_name":"Van Den Bosch, Hanne","first_name":"Hanne"}],"department":[{"_id":"RoSe"}],"doi":"10.1002/cpa.21717","_id":"446"}
