Abstract
The electric field gradient (EFG) on impurity atoms (Ag-Xe) in hcp Cd are calculated within the SC local density molecular/cluster approach using 27 atoms. The systematic trend and change of sign with increasing impurity charge, is well reproduced and explained by a successive population of hybridized pz and px, py orbitals. Results on the volume and c/a dependence of the EFG will also be presented, as well as on the surface EFG.
