Thermal Properties of Meteoritic Iron from -150{degrees} to 300{degrees} Celsius

Science. 1963 Feb 8;139(3554):486-7. doi: 10.1126/science.139.3554.486.

Abstract

Thermal diffusivity and specific heat have been measured by the flash method on a small specimen of meteoritic iron from the Canyon Diablo fall. Measurements have been made over the temperature range -150 degrees to 300 degrees C from which thermal conductivity values have been calculated.
