Thanks for the info. Looks like webelements has the right stuff.
Their Pd-Pd bond length roughly agrees with the one I used, but the
atomic radius differs a bit, depending on which one you use. It will
take me a while to respond further, as I have some chores to do. The
general conclusions of the AEH paper still seem about right, it is
just a matter of moving up or down the table depending on the values
used. Also, temperature has not been considered.

My data is on my office computer. It is damned hard to find the
unit cell length of Pd!! I have a NRL report which shows 4%
swelling of the Pd lattice during hydridization (made that word
up!). I'll give you those refs tomorrow.

Here's the reference on Pd radius:

although I now see that wikipedia has different numbers:

Here's the xtal dimensions:

And here's the reference from NRL on the lattice expansion:

Note the date of 4/1989, the heyday of CF!
Yes. I seem to remember this article too.
I'll continue reading your paper when I finish the staffing
reports. Managing sux; but, trying to manage engineers is like
herding cats. :-)
