Phys. Rev. B 23, 5628–5631 (1981)Theory of the specific-heat coefficient of a Hume-Rothery alloy
The coefficient of the linear part of the low-temperature specific heat is calculated for alloys of zinc in copper having three different concentrations. The densities of states are obtained from a parameter-free calculation based on the Korringa-Kohn-Rostocker coherent-potential approximation, and the electron-phonon enhancement factors are estimated from resistivity data. The results of the historically important experiments on this system are reproduced in detail. © 1981 The American Physical Society URL:
