Abstract
Calculations of the electron-phonon interaction, , and are presented for ten different compounds, and , . The calculated temperature-dependent magnetic susceptibility of Sn is also shown to be in good agreement with experiment. We argue that the low-temperature anomalies in many materials are related to the very sharp structure in the density of states near the Fermi energy found in our ab initio band-structure results.
