Abstract

We have analyzed a large set of data in the literature as well as new data of our own to provide an improved equation of state of solid para-hydrogen and ortho-deuterium, with pressures ranging from 0 to 25 kbar (at the melting line). Results, including pressure, bulk modulus, and thermal expansion, are tabulated for a dense set of molar volumes as a function of temperature.
