The low-temperature specific heat capacity and thermal conductivity under magnetic field 0–13 T is investigated on polycrystalline sample of the ferromagnetic insulator CdCr2Se4, possessing spinel structure with magnetic Cr3+ ions in the octahedrally coordinated sites. The phonon (lattice) and magnon contributions are separated by their characteristic temperature dependencies and by quenching of the magnon component under high magnetic fields in the isothermal measurements. The results are analyzed with respect to formulas for model systems and confronted with ab-initio calculations of phonon and magnon spectra. The theoretical formula for the field-induced quenching of magnon heat capacity is well reproduced, but there are two kinds of deviations from expected behavior deserving attention:Heat capacity at low fields is by several percent lower than expected and approaches the theoretical curve only above ∼0.5 T.
