Ultra-low Temperature Engineering and Its Applications for Research

We will discuss the Ultra-low Temperature (ULT) technologies and its Applications for Research. ULT technologies have been developed shoulder by shoulder with helium physics research (where the ULT Physic research originally started), and they have found themselves with much broader applications in the current Physics research.

This talk will start with an example of application of ULT technology in classical He-3 physics research, followed by examples of its applications in contemporary frontier Physics research, such as ULT-STM systems in high magnetic fields, Angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES) below 1K, Cosmology Physics, and etc.
