The muffin-tin approximation is a method used in solid-state physics and materials science to simplify the calculations of electronic structure in crystalline solids. It is particularly relevant in the study of the electronic properties of metals and semiconductors. In the muffin-tin approximation, the potential energy landscape of a solid is modeled in such a way that the crystal is divided into different regions.
