A new method for the evaluation of electric conductivity in metals
Abstract
A method is developed which allows the evaluation of the closed formal expressions for electrical conductivity which have recently been developed by several authors. The case of a random set of scatterers is treated in detail and the formal solution made to yield directly the solution to the Boltzmann equation. A brief mention of the application of this method to liquids and alloys is made.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
