A guide to tire stabilities of inter-metallic compounds can be obtained from the semi-empirical model of Miedema et al. (loc. cit.), in which the heat of interaction between two elements is determined by a contribution arising from the difference in work functions, A0, of tire elements, which leads to an exothermic contribution, and tire difference in the electron concentration at tire periphery of the atoms, A w, which leads to an endothermic contribution. The latter term is referred to in metal physics as the concentration of electrons at the periphery of the Wigner-Seitz cell which contains the nucleus and elecUonic structure of each metal atom within the atomic volume in the metallic state. This term is also closely related to tire bulk modulus of each element. The work function difference is very similar to the electronegativity difference. The equation which is used in tire Miedema treatment to... 

I came back in 1959 to deliver a course of crystallography lectures at the CAB, and by that time the metal physics was well established. It has continued to flourish, and broaden many papers of note were published, and a succession of international materials symposia have been held there. The CAB director, Balseiro, died young, of cancer, and the latest of a succession of directors is Jose Abriata, an Argentinian materials scientist. Most observers, I believe, both in South America and beyond, would concur that the Bariloche centre is the most distinguished physics laboratory in South America. Materials science plays an important part there, and credit for that belongs to Jorge Sabato. 

Back in the Soviet Union, he moved to the Ukraine to help, with his scientist wife, create a research institute in Dniepropetrovsk, where he continued with his researches. He was invited to be director, sought to escape from this fate (he complained that he would be a bad administrator, and that by administering he would lose contact with real science and then become unable to direct scientific work properly) but was persuaded to overcome his seruples. The rest of his long career he both administered (usually more than one institute at once) and remained a unique scientist. During the War, the institute had to move, and after the War, it was moved again, to Moscow, and Kurdyumov with it. While in Moscow, he also created a laboratory of metal physics in Kiev, Ukraine, and directed both the Moscow and the... 

This induced an increasing number of papers devoted to the study of the hydrogen effect on the mechanical properties of titanium alloys -lo SQjjjg interesting effects of hydrogen in titanium and its alloys are discussed below on the basis of the experimental data obtained at ISSP RAS (the early experiments were carried out in co-operation with the Institute of Metal Physics UD RAS). 

Mechanical properties of hydrogenated titanium alloys are strongly dependent on the applied stress tensor, especially on its hydrostatic component. This was illustrated by the high-pressure tensile and extrusion tests on the Ti-6Al-2.5Mo-2Cr alloy and the same alloy hydrogenated to a = 0.15 wt.%H. Tests were carried out using the apparatus at the Institute of Metal Physics UD RAS operating at hydrostatic pressures of machine oil to 15 kbax and temperatures to 250°C.

Basic physical properties of sulfur, selenium, and tellurium are indicated in Table 1.3. Downward the sulfur sub-group, the metallic character increases from sulfur to polonium, so that whereas there exist various non-metallic allotropic states of elementary sulfur, only one allotropic form of selenium is (semi)metallic, and the (semi)metallic form of tellurium is the most common for this element. Polonium is a typical metal. Physically, this trend is reflected in the electrical properties of the elements oxygen and sulfur are insulators, selenium and tellurium behave as semiconductors, and polonium is a typical metallic conductor. The temperature coefficient of resistivity for S, Se, and Te is negative, which is usually considered...
