Methods to simplify cooling of liquid Helium cryostats

Abstract: Liquid Helium is used widely, from hospitals to characterization of materials at low temperatures. Many experiments at low temperatures require liquid Helium, particularly when vibration isolation precludes the use of cryocoolers and when one needs to cool heavy equipment such as superconducting coils. Here we describe methods to simplify the operations required to use liquid Helium by eliminating the use of high pressure bottles, avoiding blockage and improving heating and cooling rates. First we show a simpl… Show more

“…Resistivity measurements have been performed using the four probe AC method, with four electrical contacts made by gluing 25 μm gold wires with silver epoxy on the cleaved surface of LaRu 2 P 2 samples. For MR measurements, we have used a cryostat with base temperature 1 K and equipped with a 20 + 2 T superconducting magnet [23][24][25]. Resistivity was measured using a SR 830 lock-in amplifier.…”

“…Another highly valuable mineral resource that can be produced in rift systems is helium gas, a crucial cooling agent (Montoya et al, 2019). A highly strategic non-renewable resource, helium is normally extracted from rocks in felsic cratons, which accumulate the gas that is generated as a by-product of uranium and thorium decay (Hand, 2016).…”
