Abstract

We give a simple method within the Xα approximation to calculate various electron-electron and -hole interaction strengths U from variation in the one-electron orbital energies with respect to changes in the orbital occupancies. The values of different U's such as Uff and Ufc, calculated within the present scheme for the rare-earth series compare well with previously obtained experimental as well as theoretical estimates, wherever available. The present estimation of Ufd is considerably lower than the values suggested earlier in the literature.
