Popis: We demonstrate that the heat capacity Boson peak (BP)-like anomaly appearing in fully ordered anharmonic molecular crystals emerges as a result of the strong interactions between propagating (acoustic) and low-energy quasi-localized (optical) phonons. In particular, we experimentally determine the low-temperature (
