I. Kitagawa, M. Shirai and N. Suzuki would like to thank Emeritus Prof. Yanase and Prof. Harima of University of Osaka Prefecture for providing us with their FLAPW program. The FLAPW calculations have been performed with the use of VPP500 at Supercomputer Center, ISSP, University of Tokyo. One of us (E.K.) acknowledges financial support by grant No 94-02-03680-a from the RFBI.

N2 - The total energy and the spin moments of YCo5 are calculated by using the FLAPW method as a function of volume. In contrast to the LMTO-ASA method, the FLAPW method gives the equilibrium volume which agrees with the observation. But, as to the volume dependences of the spin moments both the FLAPW and the LMTO-ASA methods give almost the same results. The orbital moments as well as the spin moments of YCo5 are studied by carrying out LMTO-ASA calculations with inclusion of the spin-orbit interaction. The results give the correct trend as to the magnitude of the spin and the orbital moments of Co atoms.
