In addition, we investigated the first-order relativistic terms such as the relativistic correction to the kinetic energy, Darwin and spin-orbit interaction term. These terms were calculated using the first-order perturbation theory. The electronic charge density for the Darwin term was carried out from a global operator defined by Hiller, Sucher and Feinberg. The results revealed that the relativistic corrections are important in small dot radii and they should not be neglected to improve the accuracy of calculations.
