@article{ISI:000226604700051, abstract = {Close to the Mott transition, lattice degrees of freedom react to the softening of electron degrees of freedom. This results in a change of lattice spacing, a diverging compressibility, and a critical anomaly of the sound velocity. These effects are investigated within a simple model, in the framework of dynamical mean-field theory. The results compare favorably to recent experiments on the layered organic-conductor kappa-(BEDT-TTF)(2)Cu[N(CN)(2)]Cl. We predict that effects of a similar magnitude are expected for V2O3, despite the much larger value of the elastic modulus of this material.}, article-number = {036402}, author = {Hassan, SR and Georges, A and Krishnamurthy, HR}, doi = {10.1103/PhysRevLett.94.036402}, eissn = {1079-7114}, issn = {0031-9007}, journal = {PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS}, month = {JAN 28}, number = {3}, orcid-numbers = {Georges, Antoine/0000-0001-9479-9682}, researcherid-numbers = {Georges, Antoine/H-4855-2012}, times-cited = {32}, title = {Sound velocity anomaly at the Mott transition: Application to organic conductors and V2O3}, unique-id = {ISI:000226604700051}, volume = {94}, year = {2005} }
