The phonon dispersion relations for the lowest-ten external branches, and for wave vectors along the optic axis, ahve been measured in calcite, CaCO₃, at room temperature, by means of inelastic-neutron-scattering techniques. The results are shown to be consistent with a simple shell model containing ten adjustable parameters.
