✦ Synopsis

The results of magnetoresistance and thermopower investigations of a highpurity vanadium single crystal in fields up to 175 kOe are presented. The oscillations of thermopower appearing in fields above 50 kOe for [110] and [100] directions are explained by magnetic breakdown. It is shown that the topology of the Fermi surface deduced from both magnetoresistance and thermopower behavior is similar to that of niobium and tantalum.
