Özet

A model potential which is derived from second order pseudopotential perturbation theory with the transferable electron-ion potential of Fiolhais and co-workers which was originally developed for the solid state is used for the comparative study of electrical resistivity of for liquid K, Rb, and Cs metals and liquid K-Cs and K-Rb alloys. In the present study electrical resistivity of liquid K, Rb, and Cs metals and liquid K-Cs and K-Rb alloys have been calculated using Ziman's formula, and modified Ziman's formula suggested by Ferraz-March and used by Khajil and Tomak (self consistent approximation). Previously no one has reported such comparative study using that pseudopotentials. In the electrical resistivity calculation we have used structure factor derived from the solution of Ornstein-Zernike equation with Rogers-Young closure. From present investigation it is found that self consistent formulation results are better than that of Ziman's formula. A successful application is evidence that our potential can predict physical properties of K-Cs and K-Rb alloys as well as K, Rb and Cs metals.
