Thermal conductivity and compressional velocity of methane at high pressure

This repository contains experimental data on the thermal conductivity and compressional velocity of methane (CH4) up to 45 GPa at room temperature and theoretical calculations of methane's equation of state, heat capacity, and bulk sound velocity from 5-100 GPa and 0-1200 K. These datasets are presented in a manuscript submitted to Geophysical Research Letters by Meyer, D.W.; Hsieh, W.P.; Hsu, H.; Kuo, C.Y.; and Lin, J.F. on September 2, 2021 entitled: Thermal conductivity and compressional velocity of methane at high pressure: Insights into thermal transport properties of icy planetary interiors
