Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced Superconductivity in Layered Metallic Films
TL;DR: In this article, the authors observed large increases in the transition temperature of thin quenched composite films consisting of alternating layers of dissimilar metals and estimated the regions of the film which experience the greatest increase to be within a few monolayers of the metal-vacuum or metal-metal surfaces.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spin dynamics in the mixed valence alloy Ce 1-x Th x
Stephen M. Shapiro,J. D. Axe,Robert J. Birgeneau,Robert J. Birgeneau,J.M. Lawrence,R. D. Parks +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the temperature dependence of the lattice parameter and used V\'egard's law to estimate the temperature behavior of the valence of polycrystalline samples.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrical Resistivity of Nickel Near the Curie Point
F. C. Zumsteg,R. D. Parks +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the temperature dependence of the magnetic resistance in the region of 10.2°C was investigated, where the anomalous behavior reported by Craig, Goldburg, Kitchens, and Budnick was not observed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Critical Behavior at a Valence Instability
TL;DR: The isomorphic phase transition in the system is characterized by a delocalization of the $4f$ electron and a concomitant volume change, which is studied through measurements of the density and resitivity as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
αβ transition in quartz: Classical versus critical behavior
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the thermal strain along the X-axis of crystalline quartz in the vicinity of the αβ transition and showed that the onset of long range order, which previously had been thought to reflect non-classical behavior, can be adequately described by classical Landau theory.
