Hi Bob, it also depends on what you allow to leak into the vacuum. Hydrogen is a pretty effective remover of heat :-))

Hi

If you look at the thermal conductivity vs very low pressures, the conductivity
comes up pretty quickly from a hard vacuum. There is essentially no impact
on Q.

The simple answer is that the backfill is done because it does matter in a lot of
cases.

This raises the question, why there is backfill (just for thermal conductivity?)
and how much it affects the Q of the crystal.
