Abstract

The paper corrects a few errors occurring in the calculations of CALLAWAY J on the average potential of a Wigner solid. With respect to the monoatomic bcc and fcc metals, a theory of calculating the average potentials of them is established, and the theoretical results demonstrate that the average potential is directly proportional to the reciprocal of the lattice constant of the crystal. Moreover, the paper performs a great deal of calculations of the average potentials of various bcc and fcc metals, and obtains a lot of numerical results which are valuable for applications.
