Anomalous resistivity near curie temperature due to the critical scattering

Critical behavior of the temperature derivative of the electrical resistivity at the Curie temperature is treated in general. It is shown by treating the sum rule in the correlation function rigorously that, for a large Fermi wave vector, the divergence is similar to that of specific heat both below and above the Curie temperature, but for a small Fermi wave vector, the de Gennes—Friedel region appears at higher temperatures. Comparison with other divergent mechanisms are also done.
