Abstract

For a virtual atomic structure of expanded metals near the metal-nonmetal transition point the interatomic interaction energy has been calculated. An atomic cell model has been developed describing atoms in percolation clusters. The pseudowave equation is solved with a quasiclassical percolation condition for the nearly bound electron states. The interaction energy has been shown to be nearly one third of the OCP Madelung energy. An application to the equation of state near the critical point of metallic fluids has been made.
