The temperature dependence of the upper critical magnetic field that determines the upper boundary of the mixed state in Nb--Ta and Nb--Ti ailoys was investigated. The upper critical field was found to vary almost linearly with temperature from T/sub c/ down to about 0.3 T/sub c/. At lower temperatures it flattens out rather rapidly. The relation between the upper critical field and the bulk thermodynamic critical field was also examined. (D.C.W.)
