Abstract
Abstract Studies of the phonon dispersion, the temperature dependence of Debye-Waller factor, the Debye temperature, and the mean square displacement of α-iron and chromium have been made by means of a lattice dynamical model proposed by the authors. The model considers short range pairwise forces effective up to the second neighbours and electron-ion interactions on the lines of Bhatia using an appropriate value of the screening parameter. The volume force is aver aged over the whole Wigner-Seitz sphere. The ionic lattice is in equilibrium in a medium of electrons. The computed results compare well with experimental data.
