Accurate calculation of the solutions to the Thomas-Fermi equations

We obtain highly accurate solutions to the Thomas-Fermi equations for atoms and atoms in very strong magnetic fields. We apply the Padé-Hankel method, numerical integration, power series with Padé and Hermite-Padé approximants and Chebyshev polynomials. Both the slope at origin and the location of the right boundary in the magnetic-field case are given with unprecedented accuracy.
