Wiedemann–Franz law
E1343181
UNEXPLORED
The Wiedemann–Franz law is a principle in solid-state physics stating that the ratio of a metal’s thermal conductivity to its electrical conductivity is proportional to its absolute temperature, reflecting that the same electrons carry both heat and charge.

How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T18793809 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

B.
von Klitzing constant
The von Klitzing constant is a fundamental physical constant that characterizes the quantized Hall resistance and provides a precise standard for electrical resistance in quantum metrology.

Curie–Weiss law
The Curie–Weiss law is a refinement of Curie’s law in magnetism that accounts for magnetic interactions between atoms by introducing a characteristic temperature, improving the description of paramagnetic susceptibility near ferromagnetic phase transitions.
-
D.
Curie constant
The Curie constant is a material-specific proportionality factor that characterizes how a paramagnetic substance’s magnetic susceptibility varies inversely with temperature.
-
E.
de Haas–van Alphen effect
The de Haas–van Alphen effect is a quantum oscillatory phenomenon in metals where the magnetization varies periodically with applied magnetic field, allowing precise mapping of the electronic structure and Fermi surface.
- F. None of above. chosen
