Popis: Using the Hellmann-Feynman theorem an expression for the electron effective mass in crystal is derived. Calculations are carried out at some points of Fermi-surface cross-section of vanadium by the plane z = 0. The comparison with the data of numerical differentiation demonstrates the reliability of the results as well as the high accuracy of the technique presented. The method proposed for obtaining the effective mass is suitable for any calculation technique of electron spectra. [Russian Text Ignored].
