- \Having a limited education in cryogenics is hampering my understanding
- /of this phenomenon. I understood that helium cannot exist in liquid
- \state at 6 Atm.
-
- In general gas laws work the other way: increace the pressure, and the
- "boiling" point of the liquid will increace.
-
- \I can't see how one may "contaminate" it, either.
- /Would someone kindly enlighten me? ( in layman's terms, if possible )
-
- You're at the super-collider, and you need layman's terms?
- I hate to be the one to tell you this, but sooner or later you're
- going to be dealing with _large_ amounts of liquid helium...
