Abstract
New measurements of resistivity as a function of com position and temperature have been made for this alloy system . Using the theoretical model proposed by Mott for s-d scattering, and experimental values for the density of states at the Fermi surface, we have calculated both the residual resistivity and temperature-dependent resistivity with very few arbitrary parameters. Striking agreement with experiment is obtained, all the features of the experimental data being reproduced except for the behaviour of the temperature-dependent part of the resistivity near pure palladium , which is ascribed to the onset of some contribution to conduction by d -band holes.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
