The deviation of positions of atoms from their ideal lattice sites in crystalline solid state systems causes distortion and it causes variation in structural [1] and functional properties [2] . Severe lattice distortion has been proposed to be one of the core-effect in high-entropy alloys. But the fundamental mechanism of distortion at atomic scale is missing for real three-dimensional metallic systems. The present investigation aims to develop mechanistic understanding of atomic scale distortion in metallic systems in terms of the magneto-volume effects. The correlation between charge-disproportion, spin fluctuations, magneto-volume effects and Fermi surface nesting has been highlighted.
