TLDR
In this article, the force constants for interactions extending to eighth neighbours in lead were fitted to the frequencies of normal modes with wave vectors spread uniformly through the first Brillouin zone, and the frequency distribution function calculated from the model was in good agreement with results obtained by other methods.

Electron - Phonon Superconductivity

TL;DR: A fairly sophisticated description of electron-phonon superconductivity has existed since the early 1960's, following the work of Eliashberg [1], Nambu [2], Morel and Anderson [3], and Schrieffer et al..

Ab initio calculation of the superconducting transition temperature

TL;DR: In this article, the superconducting transition temperature for a series of representative metals from a selfconsistent LMTO-bandstructure calculation is calculated, and the results for V, Nb, Ta, Mo, W, Pd, Pt, Pb clearly indicate that these popular approximations are incapable of reproducing the observed transition temperatures.

Surface phonon dispersion curves of thin Pb films on Cu(111)

TL;DR: In this article, the diffraction pattern of the first monolayer (ML) indicates a $p(4\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}4)$ structure with the same lattice constant as the bulk and small superimposed peaks for the thinnest films.

A helium atom scattering study of ultrathin lead films grown on Cu(111)

TL;DR: In this article, the growth and dynamics of ultrathin lead films on Cu(111) have been investigated using high-resolution helium atom scattering, and a new mode for the monolayer structure has been found along the 〈110〉 azimuth.

Temperature Dependence of Phonons in Elemental Cubic Metals Studied by Inelastic Scattering of Neutrons and X-Rays

M. Kresch
TL;DR: In this paper, the phonon spectra of aluminum, lead, nickel, and iron were measured as a function of temperature, and the anharmonic contributions to the entropies of these cubic metals were considered.

Crystal Dynamics of Copper

TL;DR: In this article, the frequency/wave-vector dispersion relation for the symmetry directions [$00\ensuremath{\zeta}$], [$0\enuremath{µ}µ], [µ, µ,µ] in copper at room temperature has been determined by inelastic neutron scattering and interplanar and atomic force constants have been obtained.

Crystal Dynamics of Lead. I. Dispersion Curves at 100°K

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the dispersion curves of lead at the point (1, 0, 0) of a triple-axis crystal spectrometer and showed that the positions in reciprocal space at which these anomalies occur agree well with the quasi-free model for the electrons in lead, proposed by Gold.

Phonon-Frequency Distributions and Heat Capacities of Aluminum and Lead

TL;DR: In this article, the phonon-frequency distributions of aluminum and lead were determined from individual frequencies measured by neutron spectrometry and the resulting distributions were used to calculate heat capacities at temperatures up to 800\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{} (A1), with corrections for anharmonicity based on shifts of phonon frequencies with temperature.

Origin of the discrepancy between tunneling and neutron-derived phonon densities of states in lead

TL;DR: In this paper, a comparison of the density of phonon states derived from neutron scattering data with that extracted from superconducting tunneling experiments for the case of lead is presented.
