The specific heat in (KBr)1−x(KCN)x has been measured for concentrations 0.00≦x≦0.93 and for temperatures 2 K≦T≦50 K. In addition, the dipolar relaxation phenomena were studied using dielectric spectroscopy. The relaxation behaviour was parametrized assuming a Gaussian distribution of energy barriers and the mean activation energies, the distribution widths, and the attempt frequencies have been determined as a function of the CN− concentration. With these parameters the linear and the excess specific heat contributions were calculated and compared to the calorimetric results.
