Abstract

The influence of the electron-phonon interaction on the De Haas-van Alphen effect amplitudes is calculated using a theory of Engelsberg and Simpson (1970). Calculations are presented on Hg using self-energies calculated from the α^2(v) F(v) spectrum found from superconducting tunnelling data. The largest changes are found for the first harmonic: 30% in amplitude for the orbit at 15 tesla. The 10th harmonic shows large deviation also 2%.
