The principles behind EMT are described in Refs. 2 and 3 (with 2 being the more detailed and 3 being the most pedagogical). Be aware that the functional form and even some of the principles have changed since refs 2 and 3. EMT can be considered the last step of a series of approximations starting with Density Functional Theory, see Ref 4.\n\nThese files are based on Asap version 3.11.5.\n\n\nREFERENCES:\n\n[1] Jacobsen, K.

It should be implemented."
