Abstract
The specific heat of an alloy of lithium with 0.95 at.% magnesium has been measured from 20° to 300 deg;K. The specific heat of the body-centered cubic phase is less than that calculated from the Kopp–Neumarin rule. A specilic heat anomaly, due to the martensitic transformation, is observed and has almost the same heat content as the corresponding anomaly for pure lithium but the high-temperature end is of signilicantly different shape.Keywords
