The electronic and magnetic structure of the Cl5 compounds ZrZn/sub 2/ and TiBe/sub 2/ has been determined by means of self-consistent spin-polarized LMTO band calculations. The spin-densities and neutron magnetic form factors are compared with neutron scattering data for ZrZn/sub 1.9/ and TiBe/sub 1.8/Cu/sub 0.2/. The moments are found to reside almost entirely on the Zr/Ti atoms, and are found to be 0.14 and 0.21 ..mu../sub B/ per formula unit respectively.
