Methods and apparatus used for compressibility measurements of gases in the temperature range 0° to 600 °C. are described. A further method which can be used at temperatures above 600 °C. is also described. Data for some measurements with pure helium at 0° and at 600 °C. are given, from which the values (in Amagat units), 0.527 × 10−3 per atm. ± 0.003 × 10−3 and 0.439 × 10−3 per atm. ± 0.005 × 10−3 were obtained for the second virial coefficient at 0° and 600 °C. respectively.

The quantum second virial coefficient Bq for 3He is calculated from first principles at low density in the temperature range 0.005–10 K. By “first principles”, it is meant that the many-body phase shifts are first determined within the Galitskii–Migdal–Feynman formalism; they are then plugged into the Beth–Uhlenbeck formula for Bq. A positive Bq corresponds to an overall repulsive interaction; a negative Bq represents an overall attractive interaction. The s-wave scattering length a0 is calculated quite accurately as a function of the temperature T. The effect of the (low-density) medium on Bq is studied. Bq is then used to determine the volume of 3He at the saturation curve. The compressibility is evaluated as a measure of the non-ideality of the system.

A new potential function for liquid helium is obtained by modifying the Margenau potential function and summing over a suggested structure for the liquid. The new potential function leads to fair agreement with the first peak of the radial distribution curve for liquid helium, with the isothermal compressibility, and with second virial coefficient data at high temperatures.


The interaction energy between argon atoms is correlated with the following experimental properties of argon: (1) the temperature dependence of the entropy of the crystal, (2) the temperature dependence of the energy of the crystal, (3) the temperature dependence of the density of the crystal, (4) the pressure dependence of the density of the crystal, (5) the temperature dependence of the second virial coefficient of the gas, (6) the viscosity at high temperatures of the gas. The interaction energy which best accords with all these properties is strikingly different from the commonly advocated difference between an inverse twelfth power and an inverse sixth power of the distance.
