Extract

1. Introduction. The importance of the frequency spectrum of the lattice in problems concerning the properties of the crystalline state has often been emphasized. In particular, all the properties of a crystal which depend on the heat motion of the constituent particles require for their explanation a knowledge of the actual form of the vibrational spectrum.
