The martensitic transition in Nb3Sn

Creators

Description

It is argued that the strain and elastic softening associated with the martensitic transition in Nb3Sn have temperature dependences that are insensitive to the model chosen for the electrons. Lattice anharmonicity must be taken into account to explain these properties. (author)
