The Metal-Hydrogen System

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the significance of metal hydrides for hydrogen energy, this monograph offers an in-depth analysis of the bulk properties of metal-hydrogen systems. It covers statistical thermodynamics across various pressures, temperatures, and compositions. A key aspect is the exploration of quantum mechanical behavior of interstitial hydrogen atoms, including their states and motion. Additionally, the book thoroughly examines hydrogen's interaction with lattice defects and its implications in materials science. This revised second edition includes substantial updates.
