DYNAMX Team Active at QFS Meeting

The Critical Dynamics in Microgravity (DYNAMX) Group at the University of New Mexico presented one invited talk and three posters at the Quantum Fluids and Solids Conference in Minneapolis in June, 2000. PI Robert Duncan gave an overview of the new science discovered by DYNAMX during the ground-phase research, and described the open questions that can only be resolved in microgravity. Dmitri Sergatskov presented two posters, one on the development of a new type of PdMn thermometer for use at low-temperatures, and the other on a new cell construction technology. Alex Babkin presented a poster on a revolutionary miniature cryogenic valve with a mass of less than 1.5 grams.
