Experimental Preparation
(3 Figures)
- Putting outer Dewar flasks on glass vacuum chamber containing sample of
cobalt-60.
- The assembly is then placed between poles of a powerful magnet for
magnetic cooling to about 0.003 K. (Electronic scalers for recording
radiation are in background.)
- After cooling, the cobalt-60 nuclei were polarized by the magnetic field
from a solenoid, here being placed around lower end of cryostat containing
specimen before swinging apparatus back into center of large magnet (rear).
