Summary

A PRECISION LIQUID HELIUM TEMPERATURE PROPORTIONAL THERMOSTAT DESIGNED FOR USE WITH A SUPERCONDUCTING CAVITY STABILIZED OSCILLATOR IS DESCRIBED, WHERE TEMPERATURE OF THE X-BAND SUPERCONDUCTING NIOBIUM CAVITY MOUNTED INSIDE A VACUUM CAN IS REGULATED AT THE TEMPERATURE BELOW 2 K. IN THE THERMOSTAT CONSTRUCTED, TEMPERATURE IS MEASUREDWITH A GERMANIUM RESISTANCE THERMOMETER IN THE AC WHEATSTONE BRIDGE, A COMMERCIAL LOCK-IN AMPLIFIER IS USED AS A NULL DETECTOR, AND THE SECOND-ORDER LOOP IS USED. IT HAS BEEN SHOWN THAT THE METHOD OF DESIGNING A PRECISION THERMOSTAT BY MEASURING ITS THERMAL PROPERTIES IN THE FREQUENCY DOMAIN CAN BE USEFUL AND CAN GIVE VERY RELIABLE RESULTS AT LIQUID HELIUM TEMPERATURE.
