Show Abstract
This paper is a summary of the 1973 least‐squares adjustment of the fundamental physical constants carried out by the authors under the auspices of the CODATA Task Group on Fundamental Constants. The salient features of both the input data used and its detailed analysis by least‐squares are given. Also included is the resulting set of best values of the constants which is to be recommended for international adoption by CODATA, a comparison of several of these values with those resulting from recent past adjustments, and a discussion of current problem areas in the fundamental constants field requiring additional research.

Show Abstract
The viscosity and thermal conductivity coefficients of dilute oxygen and nitrogen are discussed and tables of values are presented for temperatures between 80 and 2000 K. The oxygen viscosity tables are estimated to be accurate to two percent for temperatures up to 400 K and four percent above that temperature; the nitrogen viscosity tables are estimated to be reliable to one percent in the range 100–1000 K, increasing to two percent above 1000 K and below 100 K. The error assigned to the thermal conductivity is three percent below 400 K and five percent above 400 K for both gases. The tables were calculated from the appropriate kinetic theory equations using the m‐6–8 model potential with nonspherical contributions. The approximations to the equations are discussed. It is emphasized that the available data for oxygen viscosity are generally poor and that the thermal conductivity data for both oxygen and nitrogen cannot be considered reliable at high temperatures. No oxygen data exist for temperatures above 1500 K.

Show Abstract
Tables of thermodynamic properties of nitrogen are presented for the liquid and vapor phases for temperatures from the freezing line to 2000 K and pressures to 10,000 bar. The tables include values of density, internal energy, enthalpy, entropy, isochoric heat capacity (Cv), isobaric heat capacity (Cp), velocity of sound, the isotherm derivative (∂P/∂ρ)τ, and the isochor derivative (∂P/∂T)ρ. The thermodynamic property tables are based on an equation of state, P=P (ρ,T), which accurately represents liquid and gaseous nitrogen for the range of pressures and temperatures covered by the tables. Comparisons of property values calculated from the equation of state with measured values for P‐ρ‐T, heat capacity, enthalpy, latent heat, and velocity of sound are included to illustrate the agreement between the experimental data and the tables of properties presented here. The coefficients of the equation of state were determined by a weighted least squares fit to selected P‐ρ‐T data and, simultaneously, to Cv data determined by corresponding states analysis from oxygen data, and to data which define the phase equilibrium criteria for the saturated liquid and the saturated vapor. The vapor pressure equation, melting curve equation, and an equation to represent the ideal gas heat capacity are also presented. Estimates of the accuracy of the equation of state, the vapor pressure equation, and the ideal gas heat capacity equation are given. The equation of state, derivatives of the equation, and the integral functions for calculating derived thermodynamic properties are included.

Show Abstract
Tabular values of density, internal energy, enthalpy, entropy, heat capacity, and speed of sound for liquid and gaseous helium are presented for temperatures from 2 to 1500 kelvin at pressures from 1.0 × 104 to 1.0 × 108 pascals. Diagrams of temperature vs entropy are also given. The properties presented are calculated from an equation of state which was fitted to experimental P—V—T and other thermodynamic data from the world's literature. The equation of state was fitted to these data in three separate regions of pressure and temperature. The regional equations are forced to join smoothly at the preconceived boundaries. Extensive comparisons between the equation of state and experimental data have been made, and deviation plots are presented. A particularly careful determination of the second virial coefficient over the full temperature range 2–1500 kelvin is presented. The Joule‐Thomson inversion curve has been calculated and comparisons made with other sources. Equations for the density of the saturated liquid and vapor are included as well as an equation which represents the 1958 helium vapor pressure temperature scale.
