Abstract
The topic of this work is 3d transition metals deposited on graphite. Spin-polarised density-functional calculations are used to obtain the magnetic moments of deposited adatoms and dimers. Interatomic potentia ls are also deduced. These are used in molecular dynamics simulations to study cluster formation and to investigate cluster morphology. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
