Scientific paper

We obtain the dimensions R, electron density distributions n (r-->), and total ground-state binding energies E of atoms and positive ions (nuclear charge Z, N electrons) in intense magnetic fields. A variationally formulated Thomas-Fermi-like model is valid for Z43<<10-9B<<10Z3 G; the choice n(r-->)~ZR-3σ-14exp(-σ), σ≡r2R2, gives E~-150(B1012)25Z95 eV, for neutral atoms. A crude variational calculation, valid for B>>1010Z3, gives E~-13.6N (Z-13N)2ln2(2B1010) eV.
