Abstract
The phase separation of solid 3He-4He mixtures is known to obey fairly well the regular solution theory, in which the phase separation temperature TPS is given by
Here X4 is the atomic concentration of 4He and Tc = 0.38 K is the critical temperature [1]. MULLIN [2] made a more detailed theory of phase separation based on the self-consistent phonon theory and found an excess volume on mixing ΔV given by
He predicted a pressure increase on phase separation at a constant volume, which was verified by PANCZYK et al. [3] by using a capacitive strain gauge.
