Some muffin-tin calculations of electrical resistivity in molten palladium

Abstract
Calculations of the electrical resistivity of liquid Pd are presented, based upon a number of muffin-tin potentials with the effect of neighbours and exchange-correlation treated in some approximations of current interest. The T-matrix extension of the Ziman theory is used and the electronic density of states is treated in the single-site approximation. Comparisons are then made with recent experimental work on liquid Pd.
