2. Recently, G. van der Lann [J. Phys.: Condens. Matter 10, 3239 (1998)] refined Bruno’s work ending up with a more sophisticated expression which includes spin conserved and spin-flip terms between the exchange split majority and minority spin bands, important when the majority band is not completely filled.
