TL;DR: In this paper, the expansion of the lattice can be calculated from a knowledge of two indepcndent coefficients a,, and ax, which refer respectively to the directions parallel and perpendicular to the principal trigonal axis; the corresponding expansion coefficient, ae, is in accordance with the relation stated by Voigt (1910), a 0 −a,, cos20 + a~ sin20.
Abstract: FOR crystals with trigonal structure, such as h~ematite, the linear thermal expansion coefficient is not independent of the direction in the lattice as in the case of isotropic crystals. The expansion of the lattice can, however, be calculated from a knowledge of two indepcndent coefficients a,, and ax, which refer respectively to the directions parallel and perpendicular to the principal trigonal axis; the corresponding expansion coefficient, ae, is in accordance with the relation stated by Voigt (1910), a 0 ---a,, cos20 + a~ sin20.

TL;DR: In this article, the thermal expansion of vitreous silica is shown to be particularly sensitive to thermal history values given for the linear coefficient α were determined relative to copper, and existing reference data for copper are discussed.
Abstract: Between 30 and 290 K the thermal expansion of vitreous silica is shown to be particularly sensitive to thermal history Values given for the linear coefficient α were determined relative to copper, and existing reference data for copper are discussed α for silicon has also been measured relative to copper from 55 K to room temperature Values of α at 283 K are reported for a number of samples of copper, and for Ag, Au, Al, Pt, Pd, MgO, NaCl and CaF2
