Specific heat of copper at temperatures below 0.2 K

Description

The specific heat of high-purity copper has been measured over the temperature range of 0.03-0.2 K. It is shown that an anomaly appears in the specific heats of some samples. The temperature dependence is approx.T-2 at T> or =0.03 K, and at 0.03 K the magnitude is equal to that of the contribution from conduction electrons. We have not been able to explain the origin of this anomaly
