Abstract
A new phenomenological model is proposed for the lattice dynamics of transition metals. It is based on the microscopic model of Sinha and Harmon and includes the effect of charge fluctuations coupled to atomic motions. The model has been found to reproduce very accurately the phonon dispersion curves for Nb with short-range charge fluctuations and interatomic interactions.
