Description

The pressure dependence of the superconducting transition temperature, Tsub(c), is determined for eight metallic glasses in the series (Nbsub(1-x)Tasub(x))55T45, where T = Rh, Ir. From these data the Grueneisen parameter, Ysub(G) is estimated and the volume dependence of the electron-phonon coupling constant, lambda. Pressure is observed to affect Tsub(C) through both Ysub(G) and lambda. (author)
