Of the six s y s t e m s thus defined, s t u d i e s of the V - P t s y s t e m ~ and the p o r t i o n of the T a - P t s y s t e m between 50-100 at. pct P t (Ref. 2) have a l r e a d y b e e n p r e s e n t e d ; for V - P d a phase d i a g r a m is given in the l i t e r a t u r e , s The p r e s ent p a p e r r e p o r t s the T a - P d s y s t e m ; the r e m a i n i n g two s y s t e m s , N b - P d and N b - P t , will be r e p o r t e d in subsequent publications. The e a r l i e s t p u b l i s h e d work on the T a - P d s y s t e m is a p p a r e n t l y that of G r e e n f i e l d and Beck 4 who p r e p a r e d t h r e e a l l o y s , a n n e a l e d t h e m at 1000~ and concluded that no i n t e r m e d i a t e p h a s e s e x i s t at this t e m p e r a t u r e .

The s t r u c t u r e of TaPd2 was r e p o r t e d by G i e s s e n and G r a n t 6 and was s u b s e q u e n t l y identified as b e i n g of the MoPt2 type.7 Kane, G i e s s e n and G r a n t 8 c o n f i r m e d T a P d and TaPd3 as having a B l l (or TT i C u ) - t y p e s t r u c t u r e and a TiA13-type s t r u c t u r e , r e s p e c t i v e l y .
