• Abstract: A state-of-the-art approach for calculating the finite nuclear size correction to atomic energy levels and the bound-electron $g$ factor is introduced and demonstrated for a series of highly charged hydrogen-like ions. Firstly, self-consistent mean-field calculations based on the Skyrme-type nuclear interaction are employed in order to produce a realistic nuclear proton distribution. In the second step, the obtained nuclear charge density is used to construct the potential of an extended nucleus, and the Dirac equation is solved numerically. The ambiguity in the choice of a Skyrme parametrization is supressed by fine-tuning of only one parameter of the Skyrme force in order to accurately reproduce the experimental values of nuclear radii in each particular case. The homogeneously charged sphere approximation, the two-parameter Fermi distribution and experimental nuclear charge distributions are used for comparison with our approach, and the uncertainties of the presented calculations are estimated. In addition, suppression of the finite nuclear size effect for the specific differences of $g$ factors is demonstrated.

  We employ rigorous quantum scattering calculations to examine the response of thermally averaged rate coefficients for atom-atom collisions to changes in the interaction potentials. We show that there is a characteristic change of the resulting distributions of rate coefficients, separating light, few-electron atoms and heavy, polarizable atoms.
