Abstract
A technique is described for determination of the pressure derivatives of Fermi-surface cross sections which is particularly useful for small or slowly varying sheets. Solid He pressure generation is used to shift the position of a particular de Haas-van Alphen oscillation thus yielding a direct measure of the derivative.
