Christmas Light
’Twas the night before Christmas when all through the house
No electrons were flowing through even my mouse.
All devices were plugged by the chimney with care
With the hope that St. Nikola Tesla would share.

Heat of transports Q* of hydrogen isotopes in the α-phase of Zr have been measured in temperature regions from 623K to 673K for H and from 523K to 623K for T by analysing the redistribution process under a thermal gradient. An isotope mass dependence of Q* has not been unequivocally established though a tendency that Q*(H)>Q*(T) has been observed. These data have been discussed on the basis of the biased-jump diffusion model, and a large negative bias effect has been pointed out as characteristics of Q* of hydrogen isotopes in group-IV metals in comparison with the case of group-V metals.
