HALL EFFECT IN PLUTONIUM
Journal Article

· Proc. Phys. Soc. (London)
The Hall effect was measured in specimens of alpha plutonium (maximum impurities l000 ppm) and sigma -plutonium (stabilized at room temperature by the addition of 3.4 at.% Al) at 77 and 293 deg K. Preliminary measurements on samples of silver, uranium, and thorium gave results in good agreement with published data, and additionally a value for thorium at 77 deg K of --9.8 plus or minus 0.6 x 10/sup-11/ m/sup 3/c/sup -1/ obtained. All three alpha plutonium samples showed a continuous increase in R/sub H/(up to --18.0 plus or minus + 1.2 x 10/ sup -11/ m/sup 3/ c/sup -1/) if held at77 deg K for up to six hours. After warming to room temperature and remaining there for twelve hours or more, the tabulated values were invariably obtained both at 293 deg K and initially at 77 deg K. No time dependent effect was observed in 6-plutonium. (P.C.H.)
