✦ Synopsis

Results of the heat capacity measurements

of solid oxygen in the region of the (~-6 transition are presented. Using the methods of the highest (i.e. better than 1 mK) accuracy of temperature determination, we have found a presence of the latent heat (90 J mol-'1 and the hysteresis effect in the transition. Moreover, we discovered that the sharp peak of the heat capacity in the a-6 transition has a temperature width of about 50 mK, being composed of two maxima separated by the value of about 20 mK.

TheoreWzal arguments have been presented supporting an eIastic strain as an order parameter of the m-8 phase trantiti~n. Slmple numerical calculations have been made to illustrate such a model. The monoclinic ~2 phase of solid oxygen (T < 23 9 K, space group C2/m) is antiferromagnetic. The rhombobed
