A compilation of material properties, fits, and plots at cryogenic temperatures for use in design and testing of cryogenic systems.
This Git Repository will serve to store raw thermal conductivity (TC) data and other material properties, plots, and analysis tools. The data is compiled from decades of published resources. The repository also includes the reference information for each set of measurements.
The repository is being actively developed by Henry Nachman, Oorie Desai, and Dr. Nicholas Galitzki at the University of Texas at Austin.
tc_fullrepo_
: An extensive compilation of every material included in the repository.
tc_generic_
: A simplified compilation file with a curated list of materials and fits. Includes flagged materials, whose fits are known to be problematic.
tc_other_fits
: Fits extracted directly from other sources (not produced 'in-house'). These fits may follow a different fit type. This file currently has many more fits than the raw data file because many sources report/publish only their fit.
tc_rawdata_fits
: The fits produced from temperature + thermal conductivity data that has been accumulated from a variety of sources. More information on the fitting method can be found in the documentation.

Some useful Python and Excel tools can also be found in this repository for the everyday user. These are found in the ThermalModelTools
folder.
