Notes:
We report on the band structure and wave functions of positrons, annihilating with electrons, from the thermalized state k+ = 0. We find that the bottom of the band to which the positron thermalizes in this metal is definitely nonambiguous. It is also found that even though the first few Bloch terms in the wave function can give the gross shape of the positron annihilation curve for this metal, the higher momentum components of high orders are definitely important if one is to assay the fine details of the curve.
