Measurement of the transport properties of liquid Rb using automated equipment

Abstract
Equipment to perform low-level thermocouple thermometry using a computer, a digital voltmeter, and very low thermal offset switching has been used to measure the thermal conductivity, electrical resistivity, and thermoelectric power of Rb from its melting point, near 313 K, to 650 K. The data obtained, which are accurate to the percent level, may be explained by combining the effect of the elastic scattering of electrons by ionic density fluctuations, and the effect of electron–electron scattering.
