Abstract
The results of neutron diffraction and calorimetric measurements of the freezing-melting phase transition of metallic mercury in porous glass are reported. Broadening of both transitions and extremely large temperature hysteresis between them are observed. The width of diffraction peaks is found to be temperature independent.Keywords
