Heat capacity of PrSi2
Dhar S.K.
, p. 149 - 152 (1994)
The heat capacity of PrSi2 and nonmagnetic LaSi2 has been measured from 2 to 24 °K. The data support the earlier observation of two peaks in the ac susceptibility of PrSi2, reported by S. Labroo et al. A substantial fraction of the specific heat of PrSi2 in the paramagnetic region is due to the Schottky contribution arising from the crystal field spit levels. It is essential to consider this contribution for the correct interpretation of the data.

The La-Si binary phase diagram under a high pressure of 13.5 GPa was experimentally constructed. New superconducting silicides LaSi5 and LaSi10 were found, which have peritectic decomposition temperatures at 1000 and 750 °C, respecti
The thermodynamic characteristics of lanthanum mono-and disilicides at low temperatures

, p. 1100 - 1104 (2007/10/03)
Heat capacities of the lanthanum suicides LaSi and LaSi2 are measured for the first time by the adiabatic technique in the temperature range 5-300 K. The coefficients of electronic heat capacity of suicides are determined and the standard values of the basic thermodynamic functions are calculated.
