Soviet Physics Journal Aims and scope

Abstract

Within the framework of the self-consistent Green's functions method a study is made of the effect of the exchange interaction, based on the Slater approximation, on the electronic structure of metallic lithium. The results of energy-band calculations are shown to be highly sensitive to the exchange interaction. The contribution due to core shifts prove to be significant. The values of the calculated parameters are compared with experimental data and the results of other theoretical papers. It is concluded that the exchange parameter value α=1 is more suitable for describing the properties of metallic lithium.
