It might be worth adding a comment about how Slater determinants and Hartree products have the same eigenfunctions with a one-electron hamiltonian (because SDs are linear combinations of HPs) - might make the use of SDs seem more reasonable. Also perhaps a note on how antisymmetry can be enforced in a different way using second quantization. Cdr Harris Fan Club 14:57, 21 Jun 2004 (UTC)
I changed the normalization factor in the example to 1/SQRT(2!) instead of 1/SQRT(3!), because it is about two fermions
