Electronic Transport in Metallic Systems and Generalized Kinetic Equations
by A.L. Kuzemsky
Publisher: arXiv 2011
Number of pages: 101
Description:
This paper reviews some selected approaches to the description of transport properties, mainly electroconductivity, in crystalline and disordered metallic systems. A detailed qualitative theoretical formulation of the electron transport processes in metallic systems within a model approach is given. Generalized kinetic equations which were derived by the method of the nonequilibrium statistical operator are used.
