Self-consistent relativistic calculation of the energy bands and cohesive energy of W

Abstract
The energy bands, equilibrium lattice constant, cohesive energy, and bulk modulus of tungsten have been calculated with the use of our relativistic pseudopotential. This is the first self-consistent calculation for W of which we are aware in which the spin-orbit interaction is treated on an equal footing with the other relativistic contributions. The calculated lattice constant and cohesive energy are in good agreement with experiment but the bulk modulus is not.
