Charlotte Froese Fischer (September 21, 1929 – February 8, 2024) was a Canadian-American applied mathematician, computer scientist and physicist noted for the development and implementation of the Multi-Configurational Hartree–Fock (MCHF) approach to atomic-structure calculations and its application to the description of atomic structure and spectra.[1]
The experimental discovery of the negative ion of calcium[2] was motivated by her theoretical prediction of its existence.[3] This was the first known anion of a Group 2 element.[4][5] Its discovery was cited in Froese Fischer's election to Fellow of the American Physical Society.
