Abstract

In a previous article, hereafter named as Paper I, we have showed a relationship between atomic correlation energy of neutral atoms with 2 < Z < 29 and Tsallis entropy. In this article, we generalize this relation showing the link between the atomic correlation energy and a general form of entropy obtained from deformed algebra. The results evidence the role of both q and Delta parameters of the general entropy, in terms of contribution of the long-range interactions in the correlation energy. The q and Delta values, obtained as best fit of the atomic correlation energies 2 < Z < 29, indicate that this general form of entropy reduces to the Tsallis one, reproducing well the trend of the correlation energy for low Z. Moreover, as a consequence of these values of the parameters, the state atomic wave function is more localized with respect to the wave function calculated in the limit of Shannon entropy.
