AN apparatus for calibrating thermocouples from 4 to 300Β°K is described. It has been used to obtain a detailed calibration table of the thermoelectric power and potential difference for constantan, gold-cobalt (gold-2.1 atomic per cent cobalt), and 'normal' silver (silver-0.37 atomic per cent gold)
We measured the expansion coefficient of Torlon 4203 (polyamide-imide) as a function of temperature between 4.2 and 295 K. The thermal expansion is lower than that of most polymers. The thermal conductivity k between 0.1 and 5 K was also measured: below 1 K, a quadratic dependence on temperature of
The linear thermal expansion coefficients of silver and palladium have been measured in the temperature range 20Β°K to 273~K by an interferometric method. Photomultiplier detection was used and gas pressure changes were employed to effect changes in optical path, permitting the detection of length ch
