The Thomson coefficients ax and cr2 for the two metals- occur only as the
difference 0-1 — o-2, and the Peltier coefficient ... Thus each metal can be
characterized by three parameters S, a, and IT, which are related by the Thomson
equations, ...

Thus, if the hydrogen atom concentration on an electrode surface exceeds a
certain critical value, the hydrogen molecules (H2) inside intrinsic voids in the
metal's interior may exceed a critical gas pressure and cause the voids to open
up and ...
