Here we present a new approximation for calculation of density of states of multi-component metallic alloys using Lloyd formula. We consider the average square of T-matrix as the pair replication of scattering system. The analytical expressions are probed on TixMn1-x and AlxNi1-x binary alloys. The results are in good agreement with the predicted behavior of density of states for such systems.

Key words: density of states,T-matrix, Lloyd formula, atomic shell approximation, structure factor, binary alloy
