Equation of State Model for the $\gamma -\alpha$ Transition in Ce

C. W. Greeff, S. D. Crockett, K. G. Honnell

The element Ce exhibits an isostructural $\gamma -\alpha$ phase transition with a 15\% volume change at room temperature. The phase boundary ends in a critical point at 1.5 GPa and 480 K. We…
