The magnetic susceptibility of two samples of plutonium, one highly oriented and the other randomly oriented, were measured on heating between 300 and 850 K. The susceptibilities of the alpha, beta, gamma, delta, delta-prime, and epsilon phases were

References are reviewed which indicate that there are electronic changes in α-phase Pu at several temperatures below ambient. A published theory suggests that periodic lattice distortions (PLDs) can serve the purpose of promoting electrons into hole

Hysteresis loops in electrical resistivity and elongation measurements made on plutonium (Pu) metal suggest that the α ah β and γ ah δ phase transformation are martensitic. The differing loops in different temperature ranges hint that the electro

The twinning systems of alpha phase Pu metal have been reported by Zocco et al. (Proc. XII Int. Congr. for Electron Micros., 1990, p. 1014). Twinning modes and charge-density wave (CDW) states have both been reported for the CDW materials 2HTaSe2 and

The variable superconducting transition temperature of uranium metal appears to depend upon the variability of a low-temperature martensitic transformation. Local structural fluctuations and phase instabilities are suggested as resulting when the tra

1. 1. The D2h Pmnm space group recently reported for α'-phase U suggests the phase is that of a 2H close-packed layered structure (commensurate) resulting from a martensitic transformation. A 9R type of layering may also be possible under some circu

The frequent irreproducibility of results from physical property measurements made on Pu metal suggests the existence of different states below room temperature. Heat capacity measurements yield evidence which can be interpreted as confirmation for a

Evidence is presented to show the difficulty in getting pure α-phase plutonium and that few experimentalists have made physical property measurements on it. Repeated cycling within the temperature range between 298 K and 373 K, where the diffusion c

It is proposed that the superconducting transition temperature (T /SUB c/) of uranium metal is affected by the degree of completion of the ..cap alpha..-U ..-->.. ..cap alpha../sup 1/-U martensitic displacive) transformation and that the superconduct

Extreme dips, which are seldom reproducible, occur in specific heat versus temperature curves of PuC/sub 0.80/. Heat evolution, which appears to be the source of the dips, occurs in several strongly pronounced stages. This can be interpreted as evide
