Temperature dependences of electrical conductivity {sigma}, Hall coefficient R, and thermopower {alpha}{sub 0} in Ag{sub 2}S are reported. It is established that at T {approx} 435 {+-} 5 K, all kinetic parameters vary drastically, which is associated with a change in parameters of the conduction band. It is shown that the dispersion law of electron energy in {beta}-Ag{sub 2}S corresponds to the Kane model.
