- Calculation of positron lifetime of single crystals of elements of the periodic table with the theory of local density approximation
- In the DFT plane-wave calculations, we use the local density approximation ( LDA ).
- The local density approximation ( LDA ) exchange-correlation potential has been used in the calculation.
- The microscopic optical potential of finite nuclei is obtained with the local density approximation.
- Since exact exchange-correlation functional is unknown, a local density approximation ( LDA ) is often adopted in DFT.
