Abstract
Experemental data for density of liquid uranium in the temperature range 1406-5500 K were analyzed. With some temperature functions the experimental data were approximated with least-square method. In the range 1406-3500 K where experimental data have random deviations about function the calculated values for isobar density of liquid uranium were considerd as reference data.
Keywords
liquid uranium, density, reference data
