Metals At High Temperatures

In order to understand and predict the behaviour of materials at high temperatures, it is necessary to know their physical properties. However, until recently, much of the high temperature data was unreliable. The development of techniques of high temperature thermophysical experiments over the last 10-15 years allowed to overcome these difficulties. This book presents information on the electrical and thermal conductivities, thermal diffusity, thermoelectric power and the Hall coefficient of metals for a broad temperature interval. The author also discusses the reviewed experimental data from the position of modern solid state physics.
