Abstract: We consider heavy neutral atoms of atomic number $Z$ modeled with kinetic energy $(c^2{p}^2+c^4{)}^{1/2}-c^2$ used already by Chandrasekhar. We study the behavior of the one-particle ground state density on the length scale $Z^{-1}$ in the limit $Z,coinfty$ keeping $Z/c$ fixed. We give a short proof of a recent result by the authors and Barry Simon showing the convergence of the density to the relativistic hydrogenic density on this scale.
