Phys. Rev. 91, 816–821 (1953)The Variation of the Elastic Constants of Crystalline Aluminum with Temperature between 63°K and 773°KSee Also: Erratum Received 28 April 1953; published in the issue dated August 1953 The composite piezoelectric oscillator is employed to measure the adiabatic elastic moduli of crystalline aluminum over the temperature interval 63°K to 773°K. The data permit a valid extrapolation to 0°K. The Debye characteristic temperature of aluminum at 0°K, computed with these data, is 439°K. Various novel procedures designed to facilitate the use of the method are described. © 1953 The American Physical Society URL:
