We present results of large-scale Monte Carlo simulations of the 2D classical x-y model on the square lattice. We obtain high accuracy results for the superfluid fraction and for the specific heat as a function of temperature, for systems of size L×L with L up to 212. Our estimate for the superfluid transition temperature is consistent with those furnished in all previous studies. The specific heat displays a well-defined peak, whose shape and position are independent of the size of the lattice for L>28, within the statistical uncertainties of our calculations. The implications of these results on the interpretation of experiments on adsorbed thin films of 4He are discussed.

The resistance and ac susceptibility measurements show that cooling rate of the cast-annealing samples in heat treatment process has some effect on the 110 K superconducting phase in Bi–Pb–Sr–Ca–Cu–O system. Rapid quenching of the sample in air from 845°C causes oxygen deficiency in lattice and brings about a trifling change of unit cell size along c-axis direction. The dc magnetization and specific heat anomaly ∆c measurements demonstrate that fast cooling rate can reduce the transition temperature of high T c phase and the lower critical field, and weaken the pinning forces for vertex lines. The peak value of specific heat anomaly of the sample with nominal composition of Bi 1.7 Pb 0.3 Sr 2 Ca 2 Cu 4.5 O y is still small in comparison with YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7. From the magnetization curve we can estimate that the superconducting volume fraction is about 20%.
