The proposed scheme is based on the fractional differential transform method (FDTM) and Padé approximants. This method is approached to …nd the numerical values of the initial slope of the Thomas-Fermi potential y0(0). In addition, the numerical results demonstrate the validity and applicability of the new technique. Finally, a comparison is made with existing results.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMatematikA new approach to the Thomas-Fermi equationArticle1026774
