Abstract
The alkali halides have been, due to their simplicity. a well visited playground in which new theories and experimental techniques have been tested. “Their structural, elastic, and therntueheuiieal properties are well known. They generally crystallize under ambient. conditions in B1 (fcc) or B2 (bcc) phase and undergo pressure-and temperature-induced first order transitions (sec Ref. I for an original review). The pressure-induced phase t ransit.ion between B1 and B2 phase is particularly well docnntcnted2and this process is a subject of ourab-initioHartrec-Nock (HF) and den-sity Functional (DFTT) Kohn-Sham (KS)3study.
