Abstract
Measurements have been made in the liquid helium temperature region of the magnetic threshold curve of rhenium by observations of the magnetic moment of a powdered sample. The transition temperature in zero magnetic field was found to be 2.42°K, and the observed slope of the threshold curve at was 235 gauss per degree. Assuming a reversible transition, the value of the normal electronic specific heat coefficient obtained from the magnetic data is 4.6× calories per mole per , a value which would be expected from the correlation between and previously proposed.
