Thermodynamic and electronic properties of niobium at finite temperatures

Niobium (Nb) is a fascinating element, that when it is in a solid state has remarkable properties. This is believed to be a result of its electronic configuration that has partially filled 4d and 5s sub-shells. Nb has a melting temperature of 2750 K, a high strength at high temperature, and a good w...
