Abstract

Multiple spin exchange leads, according to present understanding, to a variety of magnetically ordered states in solid ³He, depending on pressure and applied magnetic field. We report the status of experiments to directly determine these structures by neutron scattering. The large neutron absorption cross section, and associated sample heating, impose severe experimental demands on the design of the sample cell. We report on our proposed solution, including details of the sintered heat exchanger necessary to cool the sample, as well as the PrNi₅ nuclear demagnetization stage. The use of NMR in parallel experiments to characterise growth of the solid sample within the sinter is also discussed.
