โฆ Synopsis
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 thermometry down to 30 mK. The second method, discussed in this paper, uses very dilute mixtures and is useful down to 10 mK.

An apparatus for simultaneous measurements of heat capacities and pressure coefficients was designed and constructed for experimental studies of critical phenomena near the lambda points of liquid He 4 and He 3 -He 4 mixtures. The pressure was measured with a capacitance pressure sensor involving a
