Abstract
The purpose of this article is to review some recent theoretical and experimental developments in the study of metallic glasses at temperatures near or below 1K. In this temperature regime, it appears that practically all glasses, whether metallic or insulating, behave in a similar fashion. The fact that such similarities occur, despite substantial structural differences between metallic and insulating glasses1, constitutes a major theoretical challenge. This challenge, however, is not directly addressed in what follows. Instead, we shall concentrate upon the evidence for universal behavior and upon the theory which is necessary to understand this evidence. It turns out that most of this evidence involves a comparison of phonon scattering in metallic glasses with its counterpart in insulating glasses.
