Thermal conductivity of some common cryostat materials between 0.05 and 2 K

Abstract In order to design efficient low temperature devices, one must often know the thermal conductivity of materials from which the devices will be built. Other researchers have reported measurements on useful materials, but the thermal conductivity of many of the materials used by low temperature physicists at Cornell has not been published. The purpose of this work is to report the thermal conductivity of some of them.
