Summary A universal thermal conductance of charge carriersK=2π2 k B 2 T/(3h) is rigorously derived within a correlation-function formalism. Similar to the case of the universal electrical conductanceG=2e 2 /h this result pertains to one-dimensional, ballistic, and degenerate conditions for non-interacting particles.
