Title: The Metal-Hydrogen System
Description: This coherent description of the basic bulk properties of the metal-hydrogensystem emphasizes the underlying physics, leading to an understanding of how the various properties come about. Among the topics treated are: - phase relations over wide ranges of pressure, temperature, and composition - the site preference, quantum-mechanical states, and motion (diffusion, quantum-mechanical tunneling) of interstitial hydrogen atoms - a brief description of the relevant electronic structure . Comprehensive compilations of data and literature references round off this volume, making it an invaluable asset to all researchers and students interested in fundamental aspects and technological applications of the metal-hydrogen system.
