Abstract
The core-level binding energies for the free electron metals Na, Mg, Al, Cd, In and Sn are reported using Slater's transition state theory. The calculations have been performed within the atom-in-jellium-vacancy model. The results compare very well with the experimental binding energies obtained and those obtained via Δ SCF calculations reported by Nieminen and Puska, indicating that the transition state theory offers a viable alternative to the Δ SCF procedure. The advantages of the transition state theory are pointed out.
