On the Bragg, Leibfried, and Modified Leibfried Numbers
Leonid Burakovsky, Dean L. Preston, Richard R. Silbar
Abstract
The Bragg, Leibfried, and modified Leibfried numbers are defined in the context of a theory of dislocation-mediated melting, and their values are determined from the properties of the dislocation ensemble at the melting temperature. The approximate numerical coincidence of the Bragg and modified Leibfried numbers is explained. The parameter K in the definition of the modified Leibfried number is shown to be the natural logarithm of the effective coordination number. Our analysis reveals that the Bragg number can be considered an elemental constant, in contrast to the Leibfried and modified Leibfried numbers.
