  ABSTRACT: This paper presents economized power series for the Gaussian function. The economization is accomplished by utilizing the “usual” and the “shifted” Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind. The resulting economized series are applied to the solution of the radial Schrödinger equation with the attractive Gaussian potential via the asymptotic iteration method (AIM). The obtained bound state energies are compared with those given by the same method when the Taylor expansion is used to approximate the Gaussian potential. We also compare them with those obtained from the exact Hamiltonian diagonalization on a finite basis of Coulomb Sturmian functions.
