Abstract
We describe an automatic technique for direct recording of the themoelectric power of metals either as a function of temperature or pressure. This technique facilitates the process of measurement especially when one has to scan a wide temperature and pressure range. Typical experimental recordings of the γ-α electronic phase transition in cerium are also presented.
