Abstract
Quantitative analyses for the thermal conductivity in the superconduct ing state of Nb1-xTax and Nb1-xMox alloy systems were performed applyi ng the revised Bardeen, Rickayzen and Tewordt theory. The correlation between T-c and the strength of the electron-phonon interaction was cl early demonstrated. Addition of Mo to Nb was found to reduce promptly the electron-phonon interaction, resulting in the reduction of T-c.
