Abstract
Two surface induced effects are investigated for small cuboctahedral p articles of Ni, Pd, Cu, Ag, and Au: the uniform contraction of the par ticle, and the surface relaxation of the particle. The results are com pared with experimental data of small particles, as well as with exper imental data of crystals.
