  Douglas Hartree - Open Encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
Douglas Rayner Hartree (March 27, 1897 - February 12, 1958) was an English mathematician and physicist most famous for the development of numerical analysis and its aplication to atomic physics.
Even at this stage, he was applying his numerical skill to problems in quantum mechanics and developing what came to be known as the Hartree-Fock method, making possible calculations that had previously been seen as intractable.
Hartree movied to theoretical physics in 1937 before returning to Cambridge to take up the post of Plummer professor of mathematical physics in 1946.

 Hartree-Fock - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The procedure is named after Douglas Hartree, who devised the self-consistent field method, and V.
Fock, who demonstrated the rigour of Hartree's method and reformulated it into the matrix form used today.
A clever dodge, employed by Hartree, for atomic calculations was to increase the nuclear charge, thus pulling all the electrons closer together.

 New Scientist Back Page - Toy story
In 1934, Douglas Hartree, then at the University of Manchester, needed such a device for his research on molecular structure but at the time it was not easy to raise the money to build such expensive apparatus.
Consequently, Hartree and his graduate student Andrew Porter set about making a small demonstration model of a differential analyser from Meccano on the expectation (which later proved to be justified) that the sight of a working model would persuade some funding body somewhere to provide money for the construction of a full-scale machine.
Hartree used his Meccano device to model the Hartree-Fock equation and generate diagrams of the quantum electron structure of molecules.

 Douglas Hartree and Early Computations in Quantum Mechanics
Douglas Hartree, who was a mathematical physicist at the University of Manchester and the University of Cambridge during the first half of this century, examined the possibilities for numerical solutions of the many-body problem in quantum mechanics which did not permit analytic, closed-form results.
In an attempt to surmount the mathematical complexities associated with multi-electron atoms, Hartree proposed the method of self-consistent fields as an approximation scheme which would give numerical forms of atomic wave functions via iterative solution of the Schrödinger equation.
Hartree was quick to recognize the need for automatic computation, both analog and digital, for the practical implementation of the technique.

 Hartree-Fock Methods
While the "exact" many-electron Hamiltonian operator can be written down, the corresponding exact many-electron wave function is not known.
Hartree-Fock theory builds on the simplest possible approximation to such a many-body wave function, namely a product of one-electron wave functions, where each one-electron wave function corresponds to an individual electron (Hartree approach).
In Hartree-Fock theory, one additional aspect is included in the many-body wave function, namely the Pauli principle (electrons with the same spin cannot occupy the same orbital).
