Abstract:
We present a new specially designed pressure cell and technique adapted for resistivity measurements in pulsed magnetic fields up to 60 T at pressures up to at least 4 GPa, and temperatures down to 1.5 K. We show that heating effects during the pulse are acceptable (less than 1 K) and can be corrected allowing reliable temperature dependences of the magnetoresistance to be obtained. We illustrate the performance with a study of the phase diagram of the heavy fermion antiferromagnet CeRh2Si2.

2.1K
Fluid pressure is commonly measured using devices called manometers, which rely on liquid columns to indicate pressure differences. The height of a liquid column in a manometer reflects the pressure exerted by the fluid, providing a simple yet effective means of measurement. Different types of manometers serve specific purposes based on their configurations and the type of fluids involved.
A basic form of manometer is the piezometer, a vertical tube open at the top and filled with the same...

Calorimetry is a technique used to measure the amount of heat involved in a chemical or physical process or to measure the heat transferred to or from a substance. The heat is exchanged with a calibrated and insulated device called the calorimeter. Calorimetry experiments are based on the assumption that there is no heat exchange between the insulated calorimeter and the external environment. The well-insulated calorimeters prevent the transfer of heat between the calorimeter and its external...
