WP article is for 90% mine.--Paul Wormer 04:24, 22 August 2007 (CDT)

I changed a lot in the CZ version w.r.t the WP version (added a graph and removed a redundant equation), but forgot to switch off the WP flag. I dare now to give it status 1. --Paul Wormer 03:12, 9 September 2007 (CDT)

{{ToApprove}} However, there does appear to be an "n" missing in p V = RT in the text just below the isotherm figure David E. Volk 14:47, 4 October 2007 (CDT)

I have reinserted the n but it states: approximates meaning that a constant can be omitted as it behaves according to pv=RT. R being a constant derived during the equation derivation can for that evident reason not be omitted. Robert Tito |  Talk 

References

Leiden, 1873 is not informative, is there is full reference for it? Kim van der Linde 16:27, 4 October 2007 (CDT)

I will see if I can dig op the article in the Kammerlingh Onnes lab. It will however be of little importance since it is most likely written in Dutch, there will be however references in the (copy) of the original including translations. Robert Tito |  Talk  16:32, 4 October 2007 (CDT)
