Local density of states
= Local density of states
{title2=$\rho(\mathbf r,E)$}
The <local density of states> resolves the <density of states> by <position> as well as <energy>. With a consistent counting of <spin> states, its <integral> over the specimen's <volume> gives the total <density of states>, $g(E)=\int\rho(\mathbf r,E)\,d^3\mathbf r$. It describes the spatial distribution of available states, rather than their occupation.
