S. Sahling et S. Abens, Low temperature thermal properties of vitreous silica and plastically deformed pure aluminium, SOL ST COMM, 120(5-6), 2001, pp. 249-254
The thermal conductivity, heat capacity and heat release of vitreous silica
and pure plastically deformed aluminium were investigated. The temperature
dependence and absolute value of the lattice thermal conductivity of both
materials are very similar. However, in contrast to vitreous silica neither
long-time heat release nor additional contribution to the heat capacity ex
pected for tunnelling systems was found for aluminium. (C) 2001 Elsevier Sc
