Abstract

The birth of cryogenics below liquid hydrogen temperature began inconspicuously enough 64 years ago in Leiden when Kamerlingh Onnes first liquefied liquid helium.† Much has occurred since then. What began as only a laboratory experiment and curiosity is now big business. Many people no longer consider low temperatures a curiosity but apply them to their everyday needs. This presentation will consider systems below liquid hydrogen temperature or, more properly, liquid helium temperature and below.
