The statistical method of Fermi and Thomas of calculating atomic potential distributions has been extended to include positive ions. A table of potentials for any positive ion is given. The results have been applied to the calculation of (a) ionic radii, (b) successive ionization potentials, (c) deviations from the Mosely law in optical spectra.
