In the previous report it was stated that the major mathematical problems of computations were nearly solved and an attempt is being made to start application of "Tables of Integrals" to the computation of the different states of atoms and molecules. In this respect I like to report that the computation of a number of states of atoms and molecules has been carried out. The results are so far confined only to the equilibrium distance of molecules. We are extending the calculation to other distances so as to compute potential energy curves of different states of molecules. We are also developing Thomas Fermi Statistical model of the atom to verify our results of more accurate calculation. The results so far have been very encouraging and I hope to report some of these results in the next paper.
