The first cool-down of the EDIPO (European DIPOle) test facility is foreseen to take place in 2011 by means of the existing 1.2 kW cryoplant at EPFL-CRPP Villigen. In this work, the thermo-hydraulic analysis of the EDIPO cool-down is performed in order bot ...
In a rotary magnetic refrigerator a porous ring is turning in and out of a magnetic field region. The adiabatic demagnetization of the magnetocaloric material produces the "cold energy". This is described by a discontinuous temperature decrease, known as a ...
In a rotary magnetic refrigerator, a porous ring is turning in and out of a magnetic field region. At the outlet the adiabatic demagnetization of the magnetocaloric material (refrigerant) produces the "cold energy". The induced cold is described by a corre ...

Magnetic refrigeration is a new environmentally benign technology and a promising alternative to conventional vapor-cycle refrigeration. The household refrigerator without a freezing compartment shows very good prospects for a successful application. This ...
The first part of this thesis discusses technical details relating to measurements of magnetic properties at ultra low temperatures. The implementation of AC susceptibility at temperatures down to 30 mK is introduced and used as a platform to showcase sele ...
The low temperature microwave absorption anomaly reported by Corzilius et al. [Phys. Rev. B 75, 235416 (2007)] in single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) is revisited. It was originally reported that the microwave absorption of CVD grown SWCNTs shows an unex ...
Magnetic refrigeration is a new environmentally benign technology and a promising alternative to conventional vapor-cycle refrigeration. Among these technologies the household refrigerator without a freezing compartment shows very good prospects for a succ ...
Nanowire superconducting single photon detectors (SSPDs) [1] are characterized by very high sensitivity in the near infrared (detection efficiency η up to 30%, for a dark count rate DK of few Hz), speed (up to ∼1 GHz repetition rate) and time resolution (j ...
