Low-Temperature Physics

Focusing on low-temperature physics, the book explores the fascinating phenomena that emerge as temperatures approach absolute zero, such as superfluidity and superconductivity. It reflects on the historical milestone of liquefying oxygen by Louis Cailletet in 1877 and presents a modern perspective on the subject. Aimed at students, the text is structured into three parts: quantum fluids, solids at low temperatures, and principles of refrigeration and thermometry, providing a comprehensive introduction to key concepts and developments in the field.
