Cryogenic design of a high-critical temperature SQUID-based heart scanner cooled by small Stirling cryocoolers.

Summary

It is intended to be used in standard clinical environments without a magnetically shielded room. In order to make the application simple to use, the SQUIDs will be cooled by small cryocoolers, thus realizing a turnkey apparatus. A design is presented in which a temperature of 55 K is expected with a cool-down time of less than 1 hour.
