Magnetization-current density-functional theory — •Andreas Görling — Lehrstuhl für Theoretische Chemie, Egerlandstr. 3, 91058 Erlangen, Germany

A magnetization current density-functional theory is introduced that represents a framework for a unified treatment of magnetic effects, noncollinear spin, spin-orbit interactions, and currents of the electron density as well as of the magnetization. A corresponding exact-exchange magnetization-current density functional is presented and used in an implementation of the new approach. This implementation employs plane wave basis sets and pseudopotentials that take into account spin-orbit coupling. First results for atoms and molecules are presented.
