Thermal conductivities of some metals in the solid and liquid state

This dissertation, exclusive of the appendices A, B, and C, contains about 3000 words. It seems therefore unnecessary to prepare an abstract, since by the exclusion of the appendices the length of the dissertation would become not longer than the abstract required by the Graduate Council. A further condensation of the dissertation beyond the exclusion of the appendices is not possible without destroying the value of the work.
