Abstract

The band effective mass of the positron in sodium is computed by the standard method of Wigner, Seitz, and Bardeen. The result is m=1.06m, where m is the free-particle mass. Combining it with the results of the many-body calculations of the effective mass of a positron interacting with a Fermi sea of electrons, one can conclude that the theoretical value is much smaller than the experimentally observed effective mass.
