Cryogenic transmission electron microscopy has revolutionized structural biology and materials science, but achieving temperatures below the boiling point of liquid nitrogen remains a long-standing aspiration. We introduce an ultra-cold…
Next-generation gravitational wave observatories are expected to use cryogenically cooled, pendulum-suspended 200 kg test mass mirrors from a crystalline material such as crystalline silicon. During operation of the observatories, these…
We report on the development of a versatile cryogen-free laboratory cryostat based upon a commercial pulse tube cryocooler. It provides enough cooling power for continuous recondensation of circulating $^4$He gas at a condensation pressure…
Power electronics systems, widely used in various applications such as industrial automation, electric cars, and renewable energy, have the primary function of converting and controlling electrical power to the desired type of load. Despite…
The understanding of complex and/or large vacuum systems operating at cryogenic temperatures requires a specific knowledge of the vacuum science at such temperatures. At room temperature, molecules with a low binding energy to a surface are…
We describe a set-up for studying adsorption of helium in silica aerogels, where the adsorbed amount is easily and precisely controlled by varying the temperature of a gas reservoir between 80 K and 180 K. We present validation experiments…
Liquid Nitrogen precooling is used in most Cryoplants to achieve cooldown to 80 K temperature range. In one such system at Fermilab's CMTF Superfluid Cryoplant, where the Helium supply directly exchanges heat with liquid Nitrogen, freezing…

Joule heat generated by resistive elements of cryogenic micro- and nanodevices often originates boiling of the cooling cryogenic liquids (helium, nitrogen). The article proposes an experimental method to explore the dynamics of the…
The flow of liquid helium through a single nanohole with radius smaller than 25 nm was studied for the first time. Mass flow was induced by applying a pressure difference of up to 1.4 bar across a 50 nm thick Si3N4 membrane and was measured…

In a neutral system such as liquid helium-3, transport of mass, heat, and spin provide information analogous to electrical counterparts in metals, superconductors and topological materials. Of particular interest is transport in strongly…
We demonstrate successful "dry" refrigeration of quantum fluids down to $T=0.16$\,mK by using copper nuclear demagnetization stage that is pre-cooled by a pulse-tube-based dilution refrigerator. This type of refrigeration delivers a…
Fundamental solid state physics phenomena typically occur at very low temperatures, requiring liquid helium cooling in experimental studies. Transmission electron microscopy is a well-established characterization method, which allows…
The improvement of the number of extractable ultracold neutrons (UCNs) from converters based on solid deuterium (sD$_2$) crystals requires a good understanding of UCN transport and how the crystal's morphology influences its transparency to…
The increase over the last years of the testing activities related to quantum systems, SRF cavities for the PIP-II and the LCLS-II projects, as well as superconducting magnets for the HL-LHC project and Fusion research activities, has…
When we lower the temperature of a liquid, at some point we meet a first order phase transition to the crystal. Yet, under certain conditions it is possible to keep the system in its metastable phase and to avoid crystallization. In this…
