Abstract

A calculation of the energy and various expectation values of the 1¹S, 2^1.3S and 2^1.3P states of helium using perturbation theory is described. The method is based on zero order wavefunctions generated by the frozen core Hartree-Fock approximation. To fourth order in the energy and second order in the wavefunctions excellent agreement with the calculations of Pekeris is obtained.
