Thermo-electricity at low temperatures VIII. Thermo-electricity of the alkali metals below 2°K

Abstract
In the previous part (VII) the absolute thermo-electric power ( S ) of all the alkali metals was measured directly between 2 and 20°K. Measurements have now been made of the absolute thermo-electric force, E , of all the alkali metals below 2°K and down to about 0.1°K by means of adiabatic demagnetization techniques. The absolute thermo-electric power, S , is derived with fair accuracy from these results ( S = d E /d T ). The results are compared with theoretical developments, particularly those of Bailyn and Ziman.
