Low-temperature heat capacity of TMS monolayers adsorbed on graphite and MgO+
The heat capacity obtained below 30 K for the tetramethylsilane monolayers, which are adsorbed either on graphite or on the (100) surface of MgO, is analyzed to investigate the vibrational properties. The 2-D ...

Ferroelectric phase transitions in Pb2xSn2(1-x)P2Se6 system
Heat capacities of the Pb2xSn2(1-x)P2Se6 crystals (x=0, 0.098, 0.251, 0.402 and 1.0) were measured using an adiabatic calorimeter at temperatures between 10 and 350 K. In the crystal of x=0, two heat capacity ano...

Rubber elasticity in the introductory thermodynamics course
An experimental set-up is described in which the temperature of a piece of rubber is measured with thin wire thermocouples. It measures and records the temperature change of the rubber as it heats and cools in...

Relative Permittivity and Resistivity of Liquid HFC Refrigerants Under High Pressure
The static relative permittivity (dielectric constant) and the resistivity of HFC-236ea (CF3–CHF–CHF2) and HFC-245fa (CF3–CH2–CHF2) in the liquid phase were studied at temperatures from 293 to 343 K and pressures...

Multiply-charged ions and cluster ions produced from frozen CO2 and H2O targets in energetic, heavy ion collisions
Some frozen gases (CO2 and H2O) are used to produce multiply charged recoil ions as well as cluster ions under high energy, heavy ion impact. The ions produced in the frozen gas targets are found to be quite diff...
