Thermal conductivities and Lorenz functions of praseodymium and neodymium metals at helium and hydrogen temperatures

Received:

The thermal conductivities, electrical resistivities, and Lorenz functions at helium and hydrogen temperatures of praseodymium and neodymium metals seem to conform very closely to the behavior observed for normal nonmagnetic metals. This fact is interpreted as due to the particular magnetic properties of the elements of the first half of the rare earth series, and shows good agreement with the theories proposed by several authors on the dependence of the spin-disorder scattering on the magnitude of the ionic magnetic moment, and also on the effects of the crystalline electrical field of the ions on the same scattering mechanism.
