Helium-4 in the superfluid phase (He II) exhibits fascinating quantum hydrodynamics that has important scientific and engineering applications. Yet, the lack of quantitative flow measurement tools has impeded progress in this field. We aim to develop and implement transformative flow visualization techniques to unlock the full potential of He II.
Learn MoreOur cryogenics lab focuses on the study of mass/heat transfer and novel quantum hydrodynamics in cryogenic helium-4. We are also interested in various applications of cryogenic fluids in particle physics research and space science. By implementing advanced laser and magnet technologies, we have acquired unique capability to conduct cutting-edge research in the aforementioned areas. We look for passionate and dedicated students to join our lab.
