The curvature coefficient, (Formula presented) was specified by assuming that its ratio over the stabilized-jellium value is the same as the ratio between the experimental and stabilized-jellium values for the surface tension. The need to use experimental values for (Formula presented) and W arises from the fact that the stabilized-jellium-LDA omits contributions from the d electrons and thus does not provide accurate values for the surface tension and the work function of gold and silver. The mass of the delocalized valence s electrons was taken equal to the free-electron mass. The experimental temperature dependence of the surface tension and the coefficient of linear thermal expansion were taken from standard tables as elaborated in Ref. 14(a).
