Abstract

A discussion of some of the difficulties with previous analyses of the resistivity of $A\ensuremath{-}15$ compounds is given. Precise high-temperature data on $\ensuremath{\alpha}$-particle- and electron-damaged ${\mathrm{Nb}}_{3}$Ge and ${\mathrm{Nb}}_{3}$Sn samples with different defect concentrations are presented here and analyzed in a simple way with use of a phenomenological model based on the idea that the ideal resistivity must approach some limiting value in the regime where the mean free path becomes comparable to the interatomic spacing.

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.
