Experimental determination of critical data of liquid molybdenum

  • 1. Kiel Univ. (Germany, F.R.). Inst. fuer Experimentalphysik

Description

The submicrosecond resistive pulse heating of wire-shaped metallic samples in a highly incompressible medium leads to a thermodynamic state very close to the critical point of the liquid metal. The additional application of a static pressure may result in a critical or supercritical transition. First results on the critical data of molybdenum are reported: Tsub(c) = (11 150 +- 550) K, psub(c) = (5460 +- 1160) bar, vsub(c) = (36.5 +- 3.5) cm3mol-1. (author)
