Deriving Moseley's Law Using QM/QFT

[lovetruth]

Like Bohr had derived Rydberg's formula for hydrogen emission spectra, has QM/QFT been able to derive Moseley's law which gives emission spectra for multi-electron atoms.

There are various methods for calculating the energies of orbitals in multi-electron atoms. See for example

and links from there to descriptions of other methods.
