The Bogolyubov variational method has been applied to the investigation of the ordered phase thermodynamics for N,, CO, N,O, and CO, crystals in the molecular field approximation. The libron heat capacity, the ordering parameter, and the libration excitation energy have been calculated for the whole range of the ordered phase. The orientational disordering temperature has also been estimated. The theoretical results have been compared with experimental data.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
