He set up the first helium liquefier in the United Kingdom, and did fundamental research that increased our understanding of superconductivity and superfluid helium..Dr. Mendelssohn‘s vision extended beyond his scientific and technical achievements; he saw the potential for growth of cryogenics in industry, visiting China, Japan and India to forge global collaborations, founded the leading scientific journal in the field and established a conference series which still runs to this day. He published two monographs which remain as classics in the field..This book explores the story behind the science, in particular his relationships with other key figures in the cryogenics field, most notably Nicholas Kurti at Oxford, and his work outside cryogenics, including his novel ideas on the engineering of the pyramids.. | 出版日期 | Book 2021 | 关键词 | Life of Kurt Mendelssohn; Life of Nicholas Kurti; History of Cryogenics; History of Low Temperature Phy | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-61199-6 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-61201-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-61199-6Series ISSN 2365-0613 Series E-ISSN 2365-0621 | issn_series | 2365-0613 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
