Table 3. Summary of reanalysis of Keller’s gaseous He4 isotherms [11].

The various Quantities have the same meaning as in table 2. The three constant fits gave a statistically better fit for only one isotherm, so the results of the two constant fits have been accepted as being more meaningful and have been used for figure 2 of Part II.
