Earnest R. Keown, professor of mathematics, said this particular study will deal with the applica tion of the unrestricted Hartree- Fock equations to lithium and beryllium. After the development of the basic equations and mechanical procedure, extensive programming will be required on the IBM 709. Two students, George Abdo and Charles Conatser, will assist in the research, which started Feb. 1. GOOD! They’re the Goodest!
