Deposit surface
temperature and heat flux
depend strongly on
thermal conductivity and
emissivity.
Between the theoretical
bounds or thermal
conductivity lies a large
variation in performance.
It is essential that in situ
thermal conductivity data
are collected.

Theoretically rigorous
approaches are being
attempted to describe
emissivities.
Fundamental data (optical
constants) are in
significant disagreement.
New optical constants are
being calculated using
several approaches.
