The refrigeration of high-temperature superconductors between 25 and 65 K.

Summary

A boiling point of 27.1 K and high specific cooling capacity make neon an eminently suitable choice of refrigerant at these temperatures. A cryostat has been constructed which employs a two-stage Gifford-McMahon cooler to liquefy neon gas. Another set of cryostats are being used with liquid nitrogen/oxygen mixtures at reduced pressure for temperatures down to 50 K.
