Abstract

The Tsallis entropies are reported, as a function of the Tsallis index q and the screening parameter μ, in position space, for the ground state of the helium atom. Three different potentials, namely Coulomb, Yukawa, and exponential cosine screened Coulomb potentials and their combinations are used in the calculations. The simple Hylleraas correlated wave function, with a three-parameter, is applied to focus on getting the most characteristic physical features of the electron-electron repulsion results. The values are calculated in one- and two-electron charge densities. Moreover, for a comparative study, the Hartree-Fock approximation, which implements a numerical grid method, is employed. Additionally, the modified Tsallis index, Qq, is proposed and calculated to predict the best value of q in the combined potentials, and it was found that 0.5≤q
