Development of a 50 mK - 10 K Flight-Worthy Vibration-Free Continuous Adiabatic Demagnetization Refrigerator

[摘要] The cryogenics and fluids branch at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center is currently developing a flight-worthy vibration-free 50 mK to 10 K Continous Adiabatic Demagnetization Refrigerator (CADR) that will potentially serve as the cooling scheme for future space flight missions such as OST, LUVOIR, and other flagship missions. This 7 stage CADR will lift 6 microW of heat at its lowest stage and reject heat to a temperature platform at 10 K. A single stage 4 - 10 K flight-worthy ADR unit was recently demonstrated with an optimized cycle time of 132 seconds and a heat lift of ~13 mW at 4 K. We discuss the development progress and details of its desing in this presentation.
