26. δ〉 is even more pronounced in open and low symmetry geometries, for example, in bcc- or icosahedral-like structures
27. N also shows a strong size dependence with oscillations in magnitude as well as changes of sign. This should have direct consequences on the magnetic properties at low temperatures, since it implies that the easy and hard axis change as the size of the cluster increases
28. δ〉. Still, the orbital contributions in the relaxed geometries remain about 15-25% of the total magnetic moment
