Dependence on distance of the Sternheimer shielding-antishielding factor for 3d elements

Using analytic Hartree-Fock wavefunctions and numerical perturbation procedure the radial dependence of the Sternheimer shielding-antishielding factor has been calculated for the argon-like core electrons in the 3d transition elements from Sc to Ni in the 3dn4s1 electronic configuration. The results would be useful in calculating the electro-field gradient arising from the various components of the conduction-electron density in these metals
