Abstract
Using the augmented-plane-wave method, we performed total-energy calcu lations for all the metals crystallizing in the hcp structure and for all the 5d metals in the hcp structure. Also, using the predicted equi librium lattice constants from our present and previous total-energy c alculations, we carried out band-structure calculations that explore p ossibilities for superconductivity and magnetism in all the transition metals in the fee, bcc, and hcp structures.
