Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating realm of cryogenics, exploring the applications of closed-cycle cryocoolers to small superconducting devices. It captures the essence of a pivotal meeting held in 1977, where experts from various fields converged to discuss the future of refrigeration technology for these cutting-edge devices. At the time, liquid helium was the primary means of achieving the necessary low temperatures for superconducting devices. However, the limitations of liquid helium, such as its cost and logistical challenges, spurred the exploration of alternative cooling methods. The book delves into the thermodynamic principles underlying refrigeration and examines a range of potential cooling systems, including Stirling, Gifford-McMahon, Joule-Thomson, and magnetic refrigeration techniques. The author emphasizes the need for innovation in cryocooler design, highlighting the importance of factors such as size, reliability, and vibrational and magnetic noise reduction. The discussions encompass a variety of superconducting devices, including SQUIDs (Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices), magnetometers, and systems for Josephson voltage standards, showcasing the diverse applications of this technology. Ultimately, this book provides valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities associated with cryogenic refrigeration for small superconducting devices, paving the way for advancements that could revolutionize fields ranging from biomedicine to space exploration. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
