17. Variants of Ih are those that include vertex and on-center vacancies. As first shown in C. Mottet, G. Tréglia, and B. Legrand, Surf. Sci. SUSCAS 0039-6028 10.1016/S0039-6028(97)00226-4 383, L719 (1997), our simulations also predict that the cohesive energy of on-center-vacant icosahedra improves slightly over Ih; as the vacancy helps to relieve the accumulated strain. The cohesive energy does not improve by adding vertex vacancies in Ih.

20. Here, sphericity means how oblate the grain is. A comparison of the momenta of inertia along principal axes of a grain and a sphere measures the actual degree of sphericity. See K. Manninen, J. Akola, and M. Manninen, Phys. Rev. B PRBMDO 0163-1829 10.1103/PhysRevB.68.235412 68, 235412 (2003) where the authors correlate the momenta of inertia with the total energy of ultrasmall (N<110) Al nanograins.
