+ HEOX is a 3He cryostat with a sorption 3He pump. All gas handling is |
+ inside the cryostat, there are therefore no tubes to a pump outside. |
+ |
+ After putting into operation, some questions are still open: |
+ |
+ * The sample space has a diameter of about 40 mm. Around this tube, |
+ there is 4.5 mm liquid helium. This may produce background, |
+ especially on inelastic measurements. |
+ |
+ * In principle, it should be possible to combine the 3He insert with |
+ the MA09 cryomagnet. It is not yet clear, if it really works, and |
+ there will also be the problem with the LHe background. |
+ |
+ * For powders, it is not clear if the thermal contact inside the |
+ sample container is good enough to ensure the expected sample |
+ temperature. |
