Abstract

By using a relativistic linear augmented-plane-wave method, we clarify energy band structure and the Fermi surfaces of recently synthesized thorium compound ThRhIn $_5$ . We find several cylindrical Fermi surface sheets, which are similar to those of CeTIn $_5$ (T=Ir and Co), PuTGa $_5$ (T=Co and Rh), and AmCoGa $_5$ . We discuss such similarity among the compounds including rare-earth or actinide ions with different $f$ electron numbers.
