MISTE PI Presents a Paper at the ISS Utilization - 2001 Conference

Martin Barmatz, MISTE Principal Investigator at JPL, presented a paper titled "MISTE: Microgravity Experiment to Measure the Heat Capacity and Susceptibility Near a Liquid-Gas Critical Point" at the International Space Station Utilization 2001 Conference in Cape Canaveral, Florida. This talk, co-authored by Inseob Hahn and Fang Zhong, was part of the session on Fundamental Physics Research on the ISS - Part 1. The talk described the objectives of the MISTE flight experiment, used ground-based measurements to illustrate the experimental techniques, and discussed the progress being made in developing the flight hardware.
