Abstract

Using a self-consistent calculation, we show that the impurity resistivity of metals containing hydrogen or deuterium decreases as temperature increases. We also predict a significant isotope effect that is largest at O K and vanishes at high temperatures. These effects should be common to all metal-hydrogen systems and could be detected by precision experiments.
