Abstract

Using the experimental data of Hensel and co-workers for the liquid-vapour co-existence curve of Rb, it is demonstrated that the average density (ρpl + ρg)/2, with l for liquid and g for gas, measured in units of the critical density, is linear in the variable (1 - (T/Tc ))2/3,Tc being the critical temperature. The long-range polarization interaction exposed by Blazej and March in liquid metals is proposed as the underlying reason for this marked departure from the law of rectilinear diameters.
