Article

We present numerical results for the specific heat of 3He-B in the weak-coupling-plus model. We find that the full temperature dependence of the specific heat is accurately determined by the specific heat jump at T c .This provides a test of the T c /T F expansion scheme for calculating strong coupling effects in superfluid 3He.
