Abstract
We have calculated the electronic thermal conductivity of Pb using realistic (derived from tunneling) kernels in the Eliashberg-gap equations which we have solved for several temperatures below and near . The computations are based on the theory of Ambegaokar and Tewordt. Complete results are also obtained for the case of Hg. A rough evaluation of thermal conductivity for In and Tl is also included.
