Abstract
The specific heat of a partly deuterated TGSe crystal-pure and gamma-i rradiated-has been measured. It is shown that small doses of radiation (DC 0.5 MR) produce a change of the phase transition order through th e tricritical point. The dose dependence of the Landau coefficients fo r DTGSe (x = 0.62) was found.
