20. Low-energy behavior is exponentially-well resolved using NRG;
21. correspondingly, calculation of densities is most accurate at large distances. For a recent review of the NRG technique, see R. Bulla, T. A. Costi, and T. Pruschke, Rev. Mod. Phys. RMPHAT 0034-6861 10.1103/RevModPhys.80.395 80, 395 (2008). (Pubitemid 351533285)
