Abstract
The multilayer relaxation of fcc and bcc metal surfaces is calculated using equivalent crystal theory. The results for changes in interplana r spacings of planes close to the surface and the ensuing surface ener gies are discussed in reference to other theoretical results and compa red to available experimental data. The calculation includes high-inde x surfaces for which no other theoretical results are known.
