Abstract  

Heat capacity of stoichiometric homogeneous spinel MgFe2O4 was measured from 5 to 305 K and thermodynamic functions were derived for temperatures up to 725 K using our previous high-temperature experimental data for the same sample. Anomaly in Cp was found at very low temperatures. Experimental data below 20 K contain large (up to 25% near 5 K) error arising from the difference in the thermal history between the experimental series. Magnetic contribution to the low-temperature heat capacity was tested, and the linear function was found to fit experimental data better than the three-halves power derived from the spin-wave theory.
