Abstract
We have calculated the electron-phonon coupling constant for the first eight elements Fr–Pu in the seventh row of the Periodic Table within a fully relativistic formulation. The underlying self-consistent energy bands were obtained by means of the relativistic linear-muffin-tin-orbital method including angular momenta s, p, d, f, and g, and the electron-phonon parameters were estimated within the rigid-atomic-sphere approximation. The comparison with previous scalar relativistic results reveals significant changes only for Ac and Pu.Keywords
