β¦ Synopsis
The osmotic pressure of liquid 3He--4He mixtures, condensed in a vessel connected by means of a, narrow slit to a similar vessel containing pure 4He, has been measured by determining the fountain pressure exerted by the pure 4He, when heated, necessary to obtain equilibrium with the osmotic pressure of the mixture. The osmotic pressure meets Van 't Hoff's law within a few percent up to 4% concentration.
A revised vapour pressure --liquid concentration relation is given, based on the results, obtained at 1.2Β°K.

Recent measurements of the osmotic pressure of mixtures of He 3 in superfluid He 4 demonstrate the feasibility of temperature measurement using either of two experimental techniques. The first method, developed by H. London, measures the osmotic pressure of the saturated mixture and is useful for th
In order to avoid possible sources of heat leaks into liquid 3He-4He mixtures we have constructed an experimental setup using only materlals of high purity. The inner part of an Ag-cell was furnished with a 700~-Ag sinter (A = llOm 2) and two vlbratlng wires. The temperature of the cell wall was mea
