Abstract
Low-temperature heat capacity of unstable β-glycine was measured in a temperature range 5.5 to 295 K, and thermodynamic functions were calculated. At very low temperatures, heat capacity fits a sum of cubic (Debye) and linear terms: Cp=aT+bT 3. The linear contribution increases with temperature and disappears at the second-order phase transition near 252 K which was observed for the first time.
