Second Sound Measurements Very Near the Lambda Point
The sound was generated by wire-wound heaters embedded in the end opposite the sensor in each cavity. The superfluid density was determined from second sound measurements and the critical exponent v was obtained from fits to the data. The results from the exponent were found to be very sensitive to the treatment of systematic effects in the data.

High Resolution Thermometers Based on Pd(Mn) for Studies of Critical Phenomena Aboard the ISS
A high resolution thermometer was developed using dilute aloy of Mn in Pd as the magnetic sensing element instead of the traditional paramagnetic salt.
