Understanding Thermometry At Low Temperature, Zain Abbas Apr 2014

Understanding Thermometry At Low Temperature, Zain Abbas

Student Research Projects

Cryogenics play a vital role in building a Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP) target for electron scattering experiments. The target material temperature was monitored using thermometry in order to evaluate their stability for use in the low temperature cryogenic bath of a DNP target. In this project, I investigated there solutions and accuracies of carbon ceramic, Cernox, Allen-Bradley, and thermocouple sensors at five known temperatures.
