{"product_id":"experimental-techniques-for-low-temperature-measurements-9780198570547","title":"Experimental Techniques for Low-Temperature Measurements","description":"This book presents a highly integrated, step-by-step approach to the design and construction of low-temperature measurement apparatus. It is effectively two books in one: A textbook on cryostat design techniques and an appendix data handbook that provides materials-property data for carrying out that design. The main text encompasses a wide range of information, written for specialists, without leaving beginning students behind. After summarizing cooling methods, Part I provides core information in an accessible style on techniques for cryostat design and fabrication - including heat-transfer design, selection of materials, construction, wiring, and thermometry, accompanied by many graphs, data, and clear examples. Part II gives a practical user's perspective of sample mounting techniques and contact technology. Part III applies the information from Parts I and II to the measurement and analysis of superconductor critical currents, including in-depth measurement techniques and the latest developments in data analysis and scaling theory. The appendix is a ready reference handbook for cryostat design, encompassing seventy tables compiled from the contributions of experts and over fifty years of literature.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jack Ekin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/07\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 704\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.42lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.89h x 6.88w x 1.59d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198570547\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eScitech Book News\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2006 pg. 38\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJack Ekin\u003cbr\u003eNIST\u003cbr\u003eDiv. 818.03\u003cbr\u003e325 Broadway St.\u003cbr\u003eBoulder, CO 80305, USA\u003cbr\u003e Jack Ekin is a Research Physicist at the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Boulder, where his contributions have spanned a wide range of topics in low-temperature physics, including studies of fundamental conduction processes in normal metals, electro-mechanical properties of both high- and low-Tc superconductors, and interface conduction in thin films and nanostructures. He completed a B.S. degree at the University of Michigan, conducted his early graduate work in physics at the University of Heidelberg as a Fulbright Scholar, and received M.S. and Ph.D. degrees from Cornell University. Currently, he also holds an appointment as Lecturer at the University of Colorado. He is a member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers and a Fellow of the American Physical Society. He has published over 150 cryogenic research articles, textbook chapters, and patents, and has lectured and consulted internationally in the field of low-temperature measurements. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Academic","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44945250746483,"sku":"9780198570547","price":304.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_4d5b734d-86b9-4413-a7f5-f2c2656ce04d.jpg?v=1778342070","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/experimental-techniques-for-low-temperature-measurements-9780198570547","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
