Results are reported of measurements of the specific heat СР of a series of samples of vanadium dioxide in the temperature range from 4.2 to 25 K. Analysis of the results shows that at these temperatures an appreciable contribution to the specific heat comes from the specific heat of the crystalline lattice and defects of the crystalline lattice, the presence of which is a consequence of the method of synthesis of the materials.
