Abstract
Data on the propagation of slightly nonequilibrium phonons, ΔT≪T b (T b is the cryostat bath temperature) in Y0.9Lu0.1AlO3 crystals with effective elastic scattering by rare-earth metal atoms are analyzed. The experimental results are interpreted on the basis of the “quasidiffusion” model, where three-phonon inelastic decay processes play a decisive role in the phonon kinetics. Monte Carlo calculations with these processes taken into account yield good quantitative agreement with the experimental data.
