Phase diagram compressibility and resistance of americium as a function of pressure

Electron heat capacity and lattice properties of Americium

“…(2), and total heat capacity (our calculations) (3); the inset shows the Debye tempera ture of americium (our calculations). (2); and experimental data [6] (3); the inset shows the temperature dependence of the bulk compres sion modulus for americium: experimental data [7] (1) and lattice component (our calculations) (2). …”

“…Information on the lattice properties of americium is scarce and contradictory [3][4][5][6][7]. Experimental data on the thermal expansion coefficient and the bulk modulus are limited in temperature and are available only for the 243 Am.…”

Analysis of dislocation mechanism for melting of elements: Pressure dependence

“…We do not show the low-pressure data of ref. [17] for Am since they would overlay the low-pressure U data. We have checked that our melting curve is in agreement with the low-pressure Am data.…”

“…(25) in Section 3 to calculate G ′ 0 for noble gases in order to get their melting curves via Eq. (17) and to compare with experiment. Good agreement between the calculated and experimental curves is another hint on the approximate validity of this formula.…”

“…We estimate the values of G .) The value of B ′ 0 for Am is taken from [17]. We emphasize that the predicted melting curves assume constancy of coordination number along them.…”
