Abstract

The phenomen of orientational ordering in solid hydrogen is studied as a function of the concentration X of the J = 1 species using Kirkwood's technique of restricted traces. Calculations of the critical temperatures as a function of X demonstrate a behaviour in qualitative agreement with the experimental observation that a long range orientation order cannot be maintained in samples for which X ≤ Xc ≃ 0.5
