✦ Synopsis
_4 comparison of some resuhs from Xa-scattered wave (X&W) and extended Hiickel (EH) calculations for meti clusters is given. It is found that small clusters of atoms (== 13 zooms) using the XcAW method reproduce many of the featr;rcs ot the electronic structure of the bulk mcta!s, whereas this is not the case for the srne clusters using the EH method. A more systematic approach to EH parametriz?ltions is suzested in order to make this method a more viable approach to treating metal ciusters.
