Abstract
A contribution to the magnetoresistance is observed at temperatures below 100 mK in bulk metallic Si: P that is unanticipated within theoretical analyses of localization. This contribution is positive, approximately independent of sample orientation, and varying roughly as the square root of the applied field. An analysis of Coulomb interactions including spin splitting is presented which, when combined with localization, describes the magnetoresistance.Keywords
