Abstract
Properties of binary solid solutions are considered from the point of view of the fluctuation of local composition in the crystalline lattice. These variations influence the properties of the alloys by varying the corresponding local concentration of electrons. A simple general statistical method is given for calculating properties of random and ordered solid solutions. The theory is applied to saturation magnetization, temperature coefficient of electrical resistivity, thermoelectric power, and to other properties in various alloys. A satisfactory agreement with experiment is obtained.Keywords
