  Dear wien2k users


   In calculating the magnetocrystalline anisotropy of

hcp magnetic Co in the Novak_lecture_on_spinorbit a
certain
correction for the lattice contribution to the total
energy 
has to be made before calculating the difference
between the
energies when the magnetization vectors is either
parallel or
perpendicular to the c-axis.

    What kind of correction should this be?  


   Thanks

   Sherif
