Abstract
Continuing previous work the scintillation anisotropy of anthracene bombarded with α particles has been measured as a function of temperature between 1.9 and about 80° K. With all crystal specimens investigated a pronounced minimum has been found between 20 and 30° K. The anisotropy is constant below about 9° K, whereas the light yield still increases with decreasing temperature down to 1.9° K. The light yield has been found to be a nonlinear function of the temperature.
