Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetic levitation of large water droplets and mice
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report successful levitation of large water droplets and mice using a newly built variable gravity simulator, which consists mainly of a superconducting magnet with a room temperature accessible experimental levitating space.
Journal ArticleDOI
4he experiments near tlambda in a low-gravity simulator
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a new thermal conductivity cell design that is 0.5cm in diameter and 0. 5cm in height to achieve full gravity cancellation in the low gravity simulator with B(dB/dz) ≈ 21 T2/cm.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, a summary of the proposed and funded projects for NASA's exploration of the Moon using cryogenic techniques is presented. But the work in this paper is focused on the Moon as a large and seismically quiet detector.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scaling and universality of the thermal conductivity of liquid 4He near the superfluid transition and in restricted geometries
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present measurements of the thermal conductivity λ ( t, P, L ) = l / ρ ( t, P, L ) near the superfluid transition of 4 He at saturated vapor pressure and confined in cylindrical geometries with radii L Â= 0.5 and 1.0 μm.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Boundary effects near the superfluid transition (BEST), an experiment proposed for the ISS
Guenter Ahlers,Paul Finley,Edgar Genio,Kerry Kuehn,Feng-Chuan Liu,Yuanming Liu,Sarabjit Mehta,Daniel Murphy +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the opportunities for microgravity measurements of the thermal resistivity near the bulk superfluid transition line Tλ(P) of 4He confined in cylindrical geometries with axial heat flow.
