Abstract

AbstractThe ground state electronic and chemical properties of divalent barium and trivalent indium are investigated in a self‐consistent manner using the spin‐polarized local density approximation in the framework of the density functional theory. A jellium model is adopted in the spirit of Gunnarsson and Lundqvist's exchange and correlation energies and the calculated properties primarily associated with the s‐p orbitals in barium and p orbitals in indium provide deepend insight towards the understanding of the mechanisms to the magic numbers in both clusters.
