Corrigendum: What is measured when measuring a thermoelectric coefficient?
A thermal gradient generates an electric field in any solid hosting mobile electrons. In presence of a finite magnetic field (or Berry curvature) this electric field has a transverse component. These are known as Seebeck and Nernst coefficients. As Callen argued, back in 1948, the Seebeck effect quantifies the entropy carried by a flow of charged particles in absence of thermal gradient. Similarly, the Nernst conductivity, αx y , quantifies the entropy carried by a flow of magnetic flux in absence of thermal gradient. The present paper summarizes a picture in which the rough amplitude of the thermoelectric response is given by fundamental units and material-dependent length scales. Therefore, knowledge of material-dependent length scales allows predicting the amplitude of the signal measured by experiments. Specifically, the Nernst conductivity scales with the square of the mean-free-path in metals. Its anomalous component in magnets scales with the square of the fictitious magnetic length. Ephemeral Cooper pairs in the normal state of a superconductor generate a signal, which scales with the square of the superconducting coherence length and smoothly evolves to the signal produced by mobile vortices below the critical temperature.

期刊介绍:
The Comptes Rendus - Physique are an open acess and peer-reviewed electronic scientific journal publishing original research article. It is one of seven journals published by the Académie des sciences.
Its objective is to enable researchers to quickly share their work with the international scientific community.
The Comptes Rendus - Physique also publish journal articles, thematic issues and articles on the history of the Académie des sciences and its current scientific activity.
From 2020 onwards, the journal''s policy is based on a diamond open access model: no fees are charged to authors to publish or to readers to access articles. Thus, articles are accessible immediately, free of charge and permanently after publication.
The Comptes Rendus - Physique (8 issues per year) cover all fields of physics and astrophysics and propose dossiers. Thanks to this formula, readers of physics and astrophysics will find, in each issue, the presentation of a subject in particularly rapid development. The authors are chosen from among the most active researchers in the field and each file is coordinated by a guest editor, ensuring that the most recent and significant results are taken into account. In order to preserve the historical purpose of the Comptes Rendus, these issues also leave room for the usual notes and clarifications. The articles are written mainly in English.
