Lett.) is apperenty ideal in the sense that there is probably no heat of mixing. Also, the inverse pitch is linear with composition. However, the elastic constants may change with composition, although their ratios may not. Therefore, the topology of the phase diagram may also be representative of a theoretical point in space
