Abstract
For temperatures below phase separation of 1000 ppm in solid , we measure a heat capacity for a pressure between melting of pure and . Together with the confined sample geometry, this results in liquid droplets ( Å) either dilute or pure depending on the phase diagram topology which is discussed theoretically. In the case of a pure droplet, an anomalously high effective mass is found, which could be explained by paramagnon effects enhanced by the confined geometry.
