of the theoretical curve to the precise choice of 8D. No other<br />
experimental estimates of the Debye temperatures in the cuprous<br />
halides could be found in the literature. Specific heat measure-<br />
ments will not in any case lead to identical values of 8D, because<br />
the functional dependence on the lattice dynamics is slightly<br />
different from that of the quadrupolar relaxation rate. In the<br />
Debye theory specific heats are evaluated from integral expressions<br />
