摘要
Annihilation characteristics for positrons trapped at metal vacancies are calculated from first principles. The calculations are based on different implementations of the two-component density-functional theory, and different numerical methods to solve the ensuring Kohn-Sham equations have been employed. The convergence of the positron annihilation characteristics calculated within different schemes is discussed and the positron lifetimes obtained are compared with experiment.
