Low temperature heat capacity of scandium and scandium alloys

Conference ·
The heat capacity of several scandium samples containing between 1.6 and 10,000 ppM atomic Fe was measured from 1 to 20/sup 0/K. Samples containing more than 30 ppM Fe exhibit an anomaly between 1 and 1.5/sup 0/K, but two scandium samples containing less than 5 ppM Fe did not show any anomalies. For these two samples the weighted values for ..gamma.. and theta/sub D/ are: 10.340 +- 0.018 mJ/g-at. K/sup 2/ and 346.1 +- 0.9 K, respectively.
