Outline of the lecture:
• Introduction (Temperature scale, History of low temperature Physics)
• Properties of matter at low temperatures (Specific heat, thermal expansion, electrical resistance, thermal conductivity)
• Cryoliquids and superfluidity (Nitrogen, hydrogen, 4-He and 3-He: phase diagrams, superfluidity)
• Cryogenic Engineering (Liquefaction of gases, helium cryostats, dilution refrigerator, adiabatic demagnetization, further techniques)
• Thermometry (Primary and secondary thermometers at different temperature Regimes)
• Quantum Matter (Quantum Transport, Quantum phase transitions, Quantum spin liquids)
