Abstract

We report a nonrelativistic self-consistent, all-electron, local-density-functional calculation of the electronic structure of silver. The linear combination of Gaussian orbitals method is used. We present our results for the band structure, density of states, Fermi surface, Compton profiles, and optical conductivity. Our results are compared with experiments and with other calculations where possible.
