I guess in chemistry
\int_{\mathbb R^3} e^{i {\bf q} \cdot {\bf x}} {1 \over |{\bf x}|}\,dx\,dy\,dz = {4 \pi \over |{\bf q}|^2}

Do you believe that?

So why does this paper say "$8\pi$" when I think it should say "$4\pi$"? Because an electron can have spin up or spin down, so there are "really" two of each state? I have no idea. [Edit. Ohhhh. Because I had ψ' but the change in the density was ψ* ψ' + ψ'* ψ which is twice more (in this case) (times n0??). I guess. But now I see other stuff I don't understand -nyo...]

PS.
