35. The moment method has been previously used in treating the AuCu 3 structure. See: Carlsson, A.E. Phys. Rev. B 1991, 43, 12176-12186. In the previous work, this analysis has focused on the effect of bond angles on the fourth moment. In this paper, where we consider the differences of energy of AuCu 3 and Cr 3 Si structures, we find that these bond angles have a negligible effect; instead the numbers of triangles and squares of bonded atoms play a dominant role.

51. In Fig. 11, we use the μ n 0 set of moments (Appendix A), as we are interested in the Wolfsberg-Helmholtz approximation, an energy equation normally expressed in eV.
