A liquid-helium automatic cooling system for a balloon-borne infrared telescope.
Author(s) : MORIGI G., VENTURA G., MANDOLESI N., CORTIGLIONI S., ATTOLINI M. R.
Type of article: Article
Summary
During a 11 h flight, the temperature of the detector, optics, and internal telescope subparts were regulated between 45 and 80 K with very good stability. The cryogenics were controlled by a pressure control equipment designed to operate at both ground level and at 40 km altitude.
