What is Calorimetric studies of superconducting (La1−xThx)NiC2 (x = 0.1–0.9) about?

Heat capacity measurements between approximately 0.4 and 12 K have been carried out on (Lal\_,Th,.)NiCa (x = 0.1-0.9) as an extension to an earlier study on the superconducting transitions in this Ni-containing system. The transition temperature T, values corroborate with the previous results from electrical and magnetic measurements. The thermodynamically-based calorimetric data further assure the bulk nature of the observed transitions, even though the highly-reactive-thorium-induced minor phases in the samples cause difficulties in deriving the electronic heat capacity coefficient y. A T, peak of 7.9 K near x = 0.5 is suggested phenomenologically to be at least partly due to the minimum in inter-planar lattice parameter c of the orthorhombic structure.
