ON THE EQUATION OF STATE OF SOLID AND LIQUID ALKALI METALS

Abstract
It is shown that high temperature experimental P-V-T data for alkali metals contain information that permits calculation of the 0 K compression isotherm for the bolid, and P-V relations for the liquid which could be interpreted as O K compression isotherms for a supercooled liquid. It appears that the 0 K isotherms for liquids and solids coincide within experimental and calcula- tional errors except, ~ossibly, for lithium. Some consequences are discussed.
