Constant-Volume Gas Thermometry Between 4 K and 100 K

Abstract

Gas-thermometer measurements between 4 K and 100 K have been performed at the Kamerlingh Onnes Laboratory as part of the preparatory work in several institutes for a future, revised, International Practical Temperature Scale. Gas-thermometer temperatures are compared, between 13.8 K and 100 K, with platinum resistance thermometers calibrated on IPTS-68 and, between 4.2 K and 27.1 K, with rhodium-iron resistance thermometers calibrated on the National Physical Laboratory (Teddington) Scale of 1975 (NPL-75).
