                          Probably the answer is that it is the sum of
                          the Coulomb potential<br>
                          from the nucleus, the Coulomb potential from
                          the electrons (both<br>

                          choice of functional -- this<br>
                          is what is used to solve the KS equations. The

                          useful. Additional terms are included for

                          spin-orbit coupling.<br>
                          <br>
                          If you meant by "external potential" some
                          other type of potential<br>
                          (e.g. a ramp) applied to the system as a
