Popis: | We propose an independent time approximation (ITA), defined by simplifying the chronological operator, namely, TTunc, where Tunc is the uncorrelated limit of the chronological operator T. The concept of the time correlation is analogous to spatial electron correlation. In both cases `correlation' is the difference between an exact result and an uncorrelated limit. In the uncorrelated ITA the time correlation operator Tcor = T-Tunc is neglected and causality between electrons is lost. In second-order calculations of a two-electron transition the ITA reduces computer time by over two orders of magnitude. Greater savings are expected when higher orders or more electrons are included. |
