Abstract
In this paper directional Compton profiles of Mo are presented and the resu lts compared with LCGO and APW model calculations. Both electronic structur e models describe qualitatively the anisotropy of the electron momentum dis tribution, which is influenced by the Fermi surface topology. However, the absolute profiles indicate that electron-electron correlation effects are i nadequately described within the local density approximation. (C) 2001 Else vier Science Ltd.
