Platinum Debye temperature

Neutron-irradiated platinum Debye-Waller factor of Au in Pt after low-temperature neutron irradiation, lattice defect... 

Effect, and Effective Debye Temperature for Sources of Natural Platinum Absorber (6)... 

Mossbauer spectroscopy with started only in 1965, when Harris et al. [322] measured the Mossbauer absorption spectra of the 99 keV transition of Pt in platinum metal as a function of temperature (between 20 and 100 K) and of absorber thickness and derived the temperature dependence of the Debye-Waller factor. 

Quite recently Eucken and Schwers (84) have made some measurements with the vacuum calorimeter, which were planned particularly to test the TMaw of Debye (cf. following chapter) in view of this object the highest accuracy was wanted at the lowest temperatures (in thermodynamical calculations the specific heats are of subordinate importance in this region because of their smallness). The method used was essentially that described above the heating was done, however, with a constantan wire, while the measurements of temperature were made by means of a lead wire, the resistance curve of this material at very low temperatures being of a more suitable form than is the case with platinum. From the measurements of Kamerlingh-Onnes and Clay the following table was calculated by the above-mentioned authors, and was related to the sample of lead used by them by correction with the aid of the a-rule (p. 36).
