The extended theory of transition-metal potential, which includes the transition-metal d states, is used to obtain the effective interatomic interactions in terms of pair potential for amorphous Fe. Pair potential for amorphous Fe is also computed using a simple approach for liquid metals given by de-Angelis and March. We employ the so obtained pair potentials to calculate the longitudinal- and transverse-phonon eigenfrequencies using the theory of phonons in amorphous solids. The results for the phonon eigenfrequencies obtained from these potentials are in good qualitative agreement with the molecular-dynamics results as well as with the theoretical results of Bhatia and Singh. Computation of the Debye temperature and the isothermal bulk modulus also shows a close agreement with other results.
