The Song, Mason and Ihm [1–4] equation of state with modification of Tao and Mason [5], originally derived for spherical and molecular fluids, is applied for fluid uranium tetrafluoride and thorium tetrafluoride based on the available experimental data. The equation of state based on statistical mechanical perturbation theory with the perturbation scheme of Weeks, Chandler, and Andresen [6]. The prediction of constants applied in the equation of state is based on the work of Boushehri et al. [7–8] using heat of vaporization and liquid density at the triple point. The vapor correction term bases on the experimental data. The results show that this equation of state agrees reasonably well with the available experimental data.

The results of magnetic and specific heat studies are reviewed and discussed for the series of RZnSn2 (R = Y, Er and Lu) compounds crystallizing in the same tetragonal HfCuSi2 - type of structure. A sharp peak in the specific heat of ErZnSn2 compound is indicative for magnetic ordering of Er moments at 5.0 K, being in agreement with its established antiferromagnetic nature. The estimated magnetic entropy Smagn contribution is less than that expected for the ground state J = 15/2 multiplet of Er3+.

The focus of discussion in Working Group 3 was on the Thermodynamic Properties as determined spectroscopically, including the observational techniques and the theoretical modeling of physical processes responsible for the emission spectrum. Recent advances in observational techniques and theoretical concepts make this discussion particularly timely. It is wise to remember that the determination of thermodynamic parameters is not an end in itself and that these are interesting chiefly for what they can tell us about the energetics and mass transport in prominences.
