Abstract
We have reexamined the Takano-Ogawa theory of Kondo's effect between a localized spin and conduction electrons in metals. We find the results of their analysis to be incorrect above zero temperature because of improper evaluation of the integrals We obtain new solutions for by not imposing the limit K, . This results in a new expression for the magnetic susceptibility which no longer diverges at the critical temperature : assuming antiferromagnetic coupling and . At K, . In the intermediate temperature range, , the susceptibility obeys a Curie-Weiss law with a negative Curie temperature which decreases to zero as the temperature increases to . The effective moment increases from zero to its free value as the temperature increases from K to . Above the system exhibits free spin behavior. The impurity contribution to the resistivity is given by which agrees with Nagaoka's result at low temperatures. Near the resistivity decreases with increasing temperature as .
