Abstract
The purpose of this workshop has been to examine the possibility that liquid or gaseous helium could be of significant value in generating the highest possible Reynolds and Rayleigh number flows. This volume is the second devoted to this subject, and therefore in principle it is unnecessary to repeat details which have already been covered in the book “High Reynolds Number flows Using Liquid and Gaseous Helium” [1]. Nevertheless, in the interest of keeping this volume reasonably self-contained, a certain amount of repetition is probably worth while.
