We have briefly discussed the ASRO (atomic short-range order) in AuFe and CuAuZn{sub 2}. General points are that (1) we have implemented a first-principles theory of ASRO in N-component alloys which allows determination of the electronic origins of said ASRO; (2) such calculations can provide much information on the high- and (sometimes) low-temperature alloys; and (3) this approach has identified the origin for the novel special-point ASRO in AuFe. Displacement effects, i.e., non-rigid lattice effects, as well as the other contributions beyond band-energy, are being incorporated into the multicomponent alloy calculations. Such improvements will allow us to investigate other alloys, …

Description
We have briefly discussed the ASRO (atomic short-range order) in AuFe and CuAuZn{sub 2}. General points are that (1) we have implemented a first-principles theory of ASRO in N-component alloys which allows determination of the electronic origins of said ASRO; (2) such calculations can provide much information on the high- and (sometimes) low-temperature alloys; and (3) this approach has identified the origin for the novel special-point ASRO in AuFe. Displacement effects, i.e., non-rigid lattice effects, as well as the other contributions beyond band-energy, are being incorporated into the multicomponent alloy calculations. Such improvements will allow us to investigate other alloys, where charge effects may play a role, to ``design`, for example, higher temperature intermetallics through alloying.
