Thermodynamic properties and melting of solid helium
@article{Dugdale1953ThermodynamicPA, title={Thermodynamic properties and melting of solid helium}, author={Jack Stuart Dugdale and Franz Eugen Simon}, journal={Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A. Mathematical and Physical Sciences}, year={1953}, volume={218}, pages={291 - 310} }
The melting properties and thermodynamic functions of solid helium have been determined at temperatures from 4 to 26° K and at pressures up to 3000 atm. The upper temperature corresponds to about five times the critical temperature of helium; it was therefore possible to measure properties of the solid state in a range which has not yet been attained for any other substance. The melting curve shows no signs of an approach to a solid-fluid critical point; in fact, the difference between the…
