Abstract
We measured the specific heat of two-dimensional films of CH 4 adsorbed on graphite for several coverages and we observed broad peaks at the liquid-vapor transition. The critical temperature is estimated to be 70 ± 1 K, somewhat lower than reported in previous measurements. At intermediate coverages the liquid-vapor boundary is very flat indicating that it could be described by a 2D Ising model. We measured also for some coverages the triple temperature at 56.2 K and the commensurate-incommensurate transition at about 50 K, both in reasonable agreement with previous measurements.
