Heat capacity of lanthanum dihydride, LaH2, between 1.3 and 20°K

Recent Developments in Condensed Matter Physics

“…By the continuity of the tangential components of the magnetic field at the surface, we conclude that our solution (16) (29) it is easy to see that the Gibbs free energy can be put under the form G s = F so 2 -(H A/4TId) (29' ) The critical field can be obtained by equating G to the Gibbs s free energy of the normal state G n F so (30) where ~C is the critical field for a bulk superconductor. The cooperative electromagnetic pinning is strongly manifested in the periodically inhomogeneous superconductors with large scale variation of the electronic properties.…”

“…At temperature Tl different MPDDs and the corresponding atom (or vacancy) jumps start to correlate with one another. ~ should be found from experimental data, but it can also be roughly estimated as follows : a ~ 2 to 3 and R ~ 5 to 10, then A ~ 10 to 30 …”

Specific heat of superstoichiometric samarium dihydride (SmH2+δ)

“…1 shows C p =T versus T 2 . The lattice contribution was removed by subtracting the specific heat of LaH 2 [8] from the observed specific heat of SmH 2:16 (C p ) to obtain the magnetic specific heat of SmH 2:16 ðC M Þ. The Shottky contribution was determined based on C M in the same way as in Ref.…”
