Timo provided a link to this paper to support the contention that QM is 
capable of providing excellent results WRT ionisation and other atomic 
phenomena.

Here is a quote from the first page of the paper:

"We have previously proposed a simple *empirical* (emphasis mine) 
equation to reproduce the literature values of the ionization energies 
of one-electron [1] and two-electron [2] atomic ions with very good 
agreement."

The paper then builds on this "success."

I use 22/7 when I can't remember or don't want to write out 
3.14159265358... The error between 22/7 and pi is about .04%.

Using QM logic, should I infer that the ratio of 22 to 7 in some way 
reflects the actual relationship between the diameter and the 
circumference of a circle?

The same (flawed) reasoning is true for this paper and for QM as a whole.

All the best

Bill
