High-pressure transport properties of CeRu_2Ge_2
The pressure-induced changes in the temperature-dependent thermopower S(T)
and electrical resistivity \rho(T) of CeRu_2Ge_2 are described within the
single-site Anderson model. The Ce-ions are treated as impurities and the
coherent scattering on different Ce-sites is neglected. Changing the
hybridisation \Gamma between the 4f-states and the conduction band accounts for
the pressure effect. The transport coefficients are calculated in the
non-crossing approximation above the phase boundary line. The theoretical S(T)
and \rho(T) curves show many features of the experimental data. The seemingly
complicated temperature dependence of S(T) and \rho(T), and their evolution as
a function of pressure, is related to the crossovers between various fixed
points of the model.Comment: 9 pages, 10 figure
