Abstract
The electric resistivities of four amorphous metals (Metglas alloys) have been measured in the temperature range 0·35–15 K, well into the saturation region. The temperature variation of resistivity can be fitted by a [log (T/T0)]2 relationship. The specific heats of two of the specimens have also been measured : there are large T and T3 contributions to the specific heat, suggesting that these materials are itinerant ferromagnets. The thermal conductivities are comparable in magnitude to those of other amorphous metals.Keywords
