Task Group
Chairman: Trevor
Letcher and Emmerich Wilhelm
Members: A. Asenbaum, Juliana Boerio-Goates,
Michael Frenkel, J. Gmehling, Tony Goodwin, Jean-Pierre Grolier, Dietmar
Paschek, Peter Privalov, Marek Pyda, J. David Raal, Stanislawc L Randzio,

Objective:
The purpose is to produce a single, up-to-date volume on all aspects
of heat capacity for liquids and vapours, pure substances and mixtures
written by the world's experts in each of about 20 subject areas.
Description:
The book will contain about 20 chapters on all aspects of the
heat capacity of liquids and vapours. The chapters will involve theory,
experimental methods, and techniques, interesting results on soultions,
liquids, vapours, mixtures, electrolytes, critical regions, polymers,
glassy states, reactions, effects of high pressure and phase changes.
Each chapter will be written by an expert in the respective fields.
Progress:
A list of the possible chapters are given below.
