For the first time the linear coefficient of the radial thermal expansion has been measured on a system of SWNT bundles at low temperatures (2.2–120 K). The measurements were performed using a dilatometer with a sensitivity of 2·10⁻⁹ cm. The cylindrical sample 7 mm high and 10 mm in diameter was o...
