Abstract
A previously developed method of calculating the thermodynamic functions of a mixture is further examined. For a lattice which is large in at least two dimensions it is shown that the largest eigenvalue of the fundamental matrix is doubly degenerate over a finite temperature range, and within this range a separation into phases takes place. An approximation to the phase boundary which is valid at low temperatures is obtained.
