The frequencies of the transverse-optical Γ-point phonon
were determined for the hexagonal transition metals ,
and
by high-pressure Raman spectroscopy up to
. Comparison is made with available theoretical
frequency-data. The elastic shear constants C44, determined
from the Raman frequencies, are consistent with ultrasonic
low-pressure data and theoretical high-pressure data and do not
support the high-pressure data obtained from lattice-strain
experiments.
