The minimum temperature in the natural universe is 2.7 K.
Laboratory refrigerators can reach temperatures in the microkelvin
range. Modern industrial refrigerators cool foods at 200 K, whereas
space mission payloads must be capable of working at temperatures
as low as 20 K. Superconducting magnets used for NMR work at 4.2
K.
Hence the properties of materials must be accurately known also at
cryogenic temperatures.
This book provides a guide for engineers, physicists, chemists,
technicians who wish to approach the field of low-temperature
material properties. The focus is on the thermal properties and a
large spectrum of experimental cases is reported. The book presents
updated tables of low-temperature data on materials and a thorough
bibliography supplements any further research.
Key Features include:
Detailed technical description of experiments
Description of the newest cryogenic apparatus
Offers data on cryogenic properties of the latest new
materials
Current reference review"
