Localization versus delocalization of d-states within the $$\hbox {Ni}_{{2}}$$ Ni 2 MnGa Heusler alloy
Abstract We present calculations based on density-functional theory with improved exchange-correlation approaches to investigate the electronic structure of $$\hbox {Ni}_2$$ Ni 2 MnGa magnetic shape memory alloy prototype. We study the effects of hybrid functionals as well as a Hubbard-like correcti...
