Abstract
Subsystems for a “proof of concept” cryogenic payload have been developed to demonstrate the ability to accommodate low temperature science investigations within the constraints of the Hitchhiker siderail (HH-S) carrier on the Space Shuttle. These subsystems include: a hybrid solid neon – superfluid helium cryostat, a multi-channel Versa Modular European (VME) architecture Germanium Resistance Thermometer (GRT) readout and heater control servo system, and a multiple thermal isolation stage “probe” for thermal control of helium samples. The analysis and tests of these subsystems have proven the feasibility of a cryogenic HH-S carrier payload.
