抄録

Detailed measurements of the thermomagnetic, thermoelectric and galvanomagnetic properties of alkali metals were made by Fletcher and his colleague. Among these measurements the Right-Leduc coefficient Am does not behave as expected but AmT reveals a characteristic peak at 0.1<TΘD<0.2. Am is defined by −∇yTBwx, where magnetic field B is applied parallel to z-axis and wx denotes the heat current along the x-axis.<BR>This anomaly of Am is attributed to the mutual drag effect induced by the electron and phonon distributions deviated from the thermal equilibrium. By solving the coupled Boltzmann equations we can get a qualitative explanation for the anomalous behavior of Am.
