Steps towards the design of a cryogenic manipulator for an ultra-thin membrane in a 1T magnetic field

The main purpose of my CERN's project is design, analysis and research on all conditions under which one cryogenic mechanism would produce extremely low temperatures needed for cooling down a silicon target in a closed magnetic system. Main source of the research is the AEgIS (Antihydrogen Experiment: Gravity, Interferometry, Spectroscopy) experiment of CERN, which aims to carry out the first direct measurement of a gravitational effect on an antimatter system. To reach this goal, a silicon target is bombarded by positrons in order to create positronium which is used to form antihydrogen atoms on which the experiment is going to be done. That would not be possible without the presence of a respective cooling system that secures constant extremely low temperatures in the silicon area. In the further development of the cryogenic system’s functionality, a special attention is given to its construction, used materials and interaction between each other.
