Abstract
The paramagnetic spin susceptibility χp of alkali metals is calculated using a local pseudopotential to estimate the effect of the ions on the electron gas. The results show a trend towards better agreement with experimental results. It seems that this may be a better method of obtaining χp for simple metals, and offers a simple way to estimate χp as a function of pressure.
