Literature

Lecture notes, copies of articles etc.  will be distributed. It should be good to have the book
D. Pettifor: BONDING AND STRUCTURE OF MOLECULES AND SOLIDS, Oxford,
or A.P. Sutton: ELECTRONIC STRUCTURE OF MATERIALS, Oxford (both in paperback)
available.  A book (that one has read) deserves its place on the bookshelve!
