- Complete collection of phase diagrams;- Up-to-date experimental information and bibliography on thermochemical data;- Formation enthalpies as predicted by the Miedema model for binary solid and liquid solutions and compounds.The first volume in this series presents a complete collection of heat of formation data on binary intermetallic compounds that contain at least one transition metal.Both solid compounds and liquid alloys are considered. A complete table of model predictions is given for systems which lack this experimental information and the origin of the model and the accuracy of the predictions are discussed extensively. Furthermore, the authors demonstrate the applicability of the atomic model in predicting energy effects in metal science in general. When surface energies and vacancy-formation energies of pure metals and model values for enthalpies of alloying are available, one can deal with a large variety of problems. Examples include the heat of reaction in metal chemistry, formation of ternary hydrides, stability of solid-solution phases, interfacial energies, surfaces and interfacial segregation, and the heat of absorption for metallic adsorbates and substrates. Examples relevant to basic physics include core-level shifts in alloys, Mössbauer isomer shift and charge transfer in binary metallic systems.A.K. Niessen is the author of 'Cohesion in Metals: Transition Metal Alloys (Cohesion and Structure)', published 1989 under ISBN 9780444870988 and ISBN 0444870989.
