Abstract:

The application of many-body techniques to explain the electronic properties of the nearly ferromagnetic metals Rh, Pd, and Pt and their alloys has greatly increased our understanding of these materials. Many of their electronic properties such as magnetic susceptibility, specific heat, and electrical resistivity can be accounted for by a model which explicitly includes a strong intra-atomic Coulomb interaction between the d-band electrons of opposite spin.
