Abstract: We report on ab initio density functional theory (DFT) calculations of structural properties of large elementary transition metal clusters with up to 561 atoms, corresponding to a diameter of about 2.5 nm, which is a relevant size for practical applications. The calculations were carried out on an IBM Blue Gene/L supercomputer, showing that reasonable scaling up to 1024 processors and beyond can be achieved with modern pseudopotential plane wave codes. Keywords: Density-functional Theory, magnetic nanoparticles, transition metal clusters, massively parallel computing PACS: 71.15.Nc, 71.20.Be, 61.46.Df, 73.22.-
