16. By pseudogap we simply mean a region of reduced electronic density of states, which arises in the one-particle spectrum within the band theory computations discussed in this paper. This should not be confused with the controversies surrounding the pseudogap phenomena in strongly correlated systems such as the cuprate high-temperature superconductors.

26. It was confirmed that the peak position at the maxima for Fe and V2p core levels and the fitted peak position of peaks A and B show the same trends as shown in Fig. 4.

32. Since our computations are not fully relativistic, the theoretical values in Figs. 4 5 have been obtained by averaging the shifts for the various (relativistic) core levels for the up- and down-spin computations.
33. In defining the CPS in Fig. 5, we have taken the bottom of the valence band as the common energy zero for various alloy compositions. This definition of the chemical potential however is not unique.
