 Perhaps it would be interesting to know when and how Koopmans theorem has
 been thus baptized, instead of something like "Koopmans approximation"
 ?
 Aparently, the original paper is : Koopmans, T. Uber die Zuordnung von
 Wellenfunktionen and Eigenwerten zu den Einzelnen Elektronen eines Atoms.
 Physica, 1, 104 (1933)
 Any historical insight, anyone ?
