Professor Chan proposes a series of experiments that draw on his                established expertise in sensitive heat capacity measurements.                  The phase transition in films adsorbed on porous glass substrates               will be investigated.  Particular attention will be given to the                possible 3-D weakly interacting Bose gas behavior of very thin                  helium films at milliKelvin temperatures.  Supercooling of a                    confined fluid will be studied with particular emphasis on                      hydrogen A superfluid transition predicted at 6K.  The heat                     capacity of critical binary fluid mixtures confined in a porous                 glass matrix may exhibit random-Ising-magnet behavior.  Heat                    capacity measurements will be made of molecular films beyond                    monolayer coverage so as to understand the relationship between                 two dimensional melting and film growth.
