Hydrogen Materials Science and Chemistry of Metal Hydrides

Results are presented in the field of hydrogen materials science, hydrogen energetics and ecology. The papers are devoted to the formation of metal hydrides, crystal structure, electronic properties and superconductivity, as well as the preparation and characterisation of metal hydrides. The book also covers the kinetics of hydrogen absorption and desorption and the thermodynamics of hydrogen solid-state processes and metal-metal hydride phase transitions.
