Apparent specific heat capacities and volumes of the protein β-lactoglobulin have been determined under a variety of solute–solvent and solvent–cosolvent compositions. These quantities were derived from measurements of volumetric specific heats and densities with a flow microcalorimeter and flow densimeter. The effect of homologous polyols on the isothermal denaturation of the protein by urea at 25 °C was investigated. The results suggest that polyol binding on the protein is sensitive to structural effects, maximum discrimination being exerted in favor of glycerol and its doubles, the hexitols.

Specific heat capacities of π meson and different quarks after parton cascade AMPT model in Au + Au collisions at [Formula: see text] have been tentatively extracted from the event-by-event temperature fluctuations in the region of low transverse mass. The specific heat capacity of π meson shows a slight dropping trend with increasing impact parameter. The specific heat capacities of different quarks increase with the mass of quark, and the sum of up and down quark's specific heat capacities was found to be approximately equal to that of π meson.
