METHOD
The CUSF allows investigations to be made of thermodynamic properties of various materials whose interatomic or intermolecular forces are known. Its zeroth approximation can hold the main anharmonic terms. Usually, the terms of the fifth and higher orders remain small up to the melting temperatures. In this case, the zeroth approximation of CUSF gives the following expression for the Helmholtz free energy of a cubic strongly anharmonic crystal 253 Mat. Res. Soc. Symp. Proc.

and hence, quantum corrections to lattice properties of the FCC phase of C60 are negligible in all its diagram of state. INTERATOMIC INTERACTIONS IN SOLID C6 In general, the interaction between two fullerene molecules can be represented as the sum of the interactions between all the carbon atoms of one molecule and those of the other 18and also between effective charges of their electron bonds '9. Thus, intermolecular forces in fullerenes are noncentral, this provides the orientational order in the low-temperature phase. However, in the high-temperature modification as well as in the gas phase, the molecules rotate very rapidly, then they can be averaged over molecular orientations. Considering each C60 molecule as if it were a sphere with a surface consisting of a constant density of carbon atoms and using the (12-6) Lennard-Jones potential for C-C interactions, Girifalco has obtain
