Abstract
Measurements have been made of the pressure and temperature dependences of the velocities of longitudinal and transverse ultrasonic waves in a glass having the composition 0.58ZrF 4: 0.34BaF 2: 0.08ThF 4. The experimental results are used to obtain the elastic constants and their pressure and temperature dependences, the Debye temperature (300K) and the acoustic mode Grüneisen gammas ( γ 11 = 2.6, γ 44 = 0.9). In contrast to BeF 2 or silica-based glasses this material is well-behaved elastically.
