Phase separation temperatures have been determined in bcc3He-4He mixtures as a function of3He concentration and melting pressure from measurements of changes in the X-ray lattice parameter and Bragg peak shape. A new rigid tail dilution refrigerator cryostat was used to study3He-4He crystals with3He concentrations of 0.10, 0.20, 0.30, 0.45, 0.60, and 0.70 and melting pressures between 3.0 and 4.3 MPa. The phase separation temperatures determined are in good agreement with regular solution theory and give little support for an asymmetry in the coexistence curve expected from a Nosanow-type model and reported from previous experiments using other signatures of phase separation. At a given concentration, differences in phase separation temperatures determined from slow cooling and warming data, respectively, are as much as 25 mdeg, but this is less than half the differences reported from previous experiments. A bcc-hcp transformation was seen in a crystal with 10%3He at aboutT=0.3 K for a melting pressure of3.7 MPa.
