The elastic constants of pure singie crystals of CsBr and CsI were measured at liquid-helium, liquid-nitrogen, and room temperatures. For CsBr, the values of c/sub 11/, c/sub 12/, and c/sub 44/ at 4.2 deg K are 3.437, 1.035, and 0.999 in units of 10/sup 10/ N/m/sup The corresponding values of CsI at 4.2 deg K are 2.737, 0.793, and 0.825 x 10/sup 10/ N/m/sup 2/. The elastic constants give the Debye temperature 148.8 deg K for CsBr and 125.6 deg K for CsI. The infrared resonance frequencies calculated from compressibility data are in agreement with those obtained from infrared spectroscopy. (auth)
