Abstract

A brief discussion of certain cryogenic aspects of nuclear polarization is given. This discussion is applied to Mn55 in the paramagnetic salt Mn(ND4)2(SO4)2·6D2O. Measurements on this salt of the temperature in the range 0.12°T0.35°K and of magnetic moment up to 90 percent of saturation as a function of magnetic field in the range 660H4560 gauss and for an entropy SR=0.514 are described. These measurements are used to calculate the nuclear polarization as a function of field in this magnetic field range and at this entropy, and they form the cryogenic basis for Mn55 polarization experiments reported previously.
