Abstract
We performed theoretical investigations on gold under high pressure through first principles self-consistent total-energy calculations within the local-density approximation as well as generalized gradient approximation using full-potential muffin-tin-orbital method and found a phase transition from fcc-type to hcp-type of structure at 241 GPa. The stability of this phase has been explained through electronic density of state.
