Closed-cycle cryogenic pump suitable for sounding rockets use
Abstract
We have successfully used a closed-cycle cryogenic cooling system as a high-speed UHV pump for instruments carried into the upper atmosphere on board sounding rockets. The device utilizes a commercially available, Sterling-cycle refrigerator that has proven to be rugged and simple to use under field conditions.
