Description
Cryogenics is the study of low temperature interactions - temperatures well below those existing in the natural universe.
The book
covers a large spectrum of experimental cases, including basic vacuum techniques, indispensable in cryogenics. Guidance in solving experimental
problems and numerous numerical examples are given, as are examples of the applications of cryogenics in such areas as underground detectors
and space applications. Updated tables of low-temperature data on materials are also presented, and the book is supplemented with a rich
bibliography.
Key Features include:
- Experiments described in technical detail
- Description of newest cryogenic apparatus
-
Applications in multidisciplinary areas
- Data on cryogenic properties of new materials
- Current reference review
Researchers (graduate
and above) in the fields of physics, engineering and chemistry with an interest in the technology and applications of low-temperature
measurements, will find this book invaluable.
Audience
This book is suitable for physicists, engineers, chemists, libraries and university teachers. It is also suitable for biologists and medicine libraries.
