The thermal conductivity of two molecular glasses ͑ethanol and 1-propanol͒ decrease with increasing temperature up to their glass transitions at T g Ϸ 97 and 98 K, respectively. Within their supercooled liquid phases, the conductivity increases with rising temperature up to a maximum which roughly coincides with the liquidus ͑or melting temperatures T m Ϸ 159 K and T m Ϸ 149 K, respectively͒. From there on, the conductivity decreases with increasing temperature, a behavior common to most liquids examined so far, exception made of liquid water. The origin of the rather different dependencies with temperature of thermal transport is understood as a competition between phonon-assisted and diffusive transport effects which are amenable to experiments using high resolution quasielastic neutron scattering and visible and ultraviolet Brillouin light-scattering spectroscopies.
