Abstract
Total energy calculations of three- and four-atomic silver clusters have been performed by the spin-polarized version of the CNDO/2 method to get the most stable equilibrium geometries, atomization energies, and charge and spin distribution on the atoms for three different basis sets: {s}, {sp}, and {spd}. When viewed from the equilateral triangle and square geometries, the last electronic configuration, i.e. the {spd} one, appears to be most stable with respect to the geometrical deformations considered. In this case, the behaviour of the atoms of both clusters resembles that of hard spheres (i.e. close-packing).
