      abstract     = {Half-metallic Heusler alloys are amongst the most promising
                      materials for future magneto-electronic applications. We
                      review some recent results on the electronic properties of
                      these compounds. The origin of the gap in these
                      half-metallic alloys and its connection to the magnetic
                      properties are well understood. Changing the lattice
                      parameter slightly shifts the Fermi level. Spin-orbit
                      coupling induces states within the gap but the alloys keep a
                      very high degree of spin polarization at the Fermi level.
                      Small degrees of doping and disorder as well as defects with
                      low formation energy have little effect on the properties of
                      the gap, while temperature effects can lead to a quick loss
                      of half-metallicity. Finally, we discuss two special issues:
                      the case of quaternary Heusler alloys and the half-metallic
                      ferrimagnets.},
