9406812货车Zytveld 技术摘要：提出了测量几种强散射液体体系的电子性质的方法。 重点的参数是电阻率和热电功率，因为这些可以很容易地与理论计算进行比较，因此将提供一个很好的理论测试。 正在研究的系统包括液态半金属合金铝钙和铝钡，纯液态金属硅和锗，三种液态重三价稀土金属，以及不寻常的“重费米子系统”，液态形式的铯铜。 这些研究将进一步了解这些有趣的液体类别，也可能揭示热电发电的材料。 非技术摘要：提出了测量导电液体：液态金属、液态合金、液态半金属和液态半导体的电子性质。 在每一个待研究的系统中，导电电子和液体离子之间的相互作用都很强，这使得这些性质在理论上更难以理解。 预计这些实验研究将提供强有力的测试，目前的理论;在热电发电的可能应用的性能的评估也将作出。 ***

9406812 Van Zytveld Technical abstract: It is proposed to measure the electronic properties of several strong-scattering liquid systems. The parameters of emphasis are the electrical resistivity and the thermoelectric power, since these can be compared rather easily with theoretical calculations, and will therefore provide a good test of theory. The systems under study include the liquid semimetallic alloys aluminum-calcium and aluminum-barium, the pure liquid metals silicon and germanium, three of the liquid heavy trivalent rare-earth metals, and the unusual "heavy Fermion system", cesium-copper, in liquid form. These studies will further the understanding of these interesting classes of liquids, and may also uncover materials of interest for thermoelectric power generation. Non-technical abstract: It is proposed to measure the electronic properties of conducting liquids: liquid metals, liquid alloys, liquid semimetals and liquid semiconductors. In each of the systems to be studied, the interaction between the conducting electrons and the liquid ions is strong, making these properties more difficult to understand theoretically. It is anticipated that these experimental studies will provide strong tests of the current theories; an evaluation of the properties for possible applications in thermoelectric power generation will also be made. ***
