The solid molecular hydrogens in the condensed phase: Fundamentals and static properties
Abstract
The molecular hydrogens (${\mathrm{H}}_{2}$, ${\mathrm{D}}_{2}$, HD, etc.) form the simplest of all molecular solids. The combination of the light mass, small moment of inertia, weak interactions, and the quasi-metastable ortho-para species result in a fascinating low-temperature behavior that can be understood to a large extent from considerations of first principles. After discussing single molecule properties and intermolecular interactions we discuss in detail the ortho-para properties, conversion and diffusion. This is followed by a description of the crystal structures and the orientational ordering phenomena. The thermodynamic properties are reviewed. The article is concluded with a discussion of the translational ground state of the solid and the effect of the large zero-point motion on the solid state properties. A large number of data are collected in tables and graphs to provide a reference source.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
