Supercold

But do not do supercold temps: That causes the baby to shiver and raise the temperature more than is helpful to fight infection, as shivering generates unneeded heat. ❋ Michael F. Roizen (2010)

Understanding of this phenomenon will come from experiments conducted in the areas of atomic physics (supercold atoms) and condensed matter (electrons in quantum dots). ❋ Unknown (2008)

Approximately 535,000 gallons of supercold liquid oxygen (LOX, minus 298 deg F) and liquid hydrogen (LH2, minus 423 deg F ) are loaded from storage tanks around the pad to the shuttles mobile launch platform and is nearly complete as of 7 AM. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Maris and Wei Guo, a doctoral student, took advantage of the bubbles that form around electrons in supercold liquid helium. ❋ Unknown (2007)

UC Berkeley physicist Richard Packard and grad student Emile Hoskinson managed to hear the quantum vibrations, known as quantum whistles, of a supercold condensed fluid as it's pushed through an array of tiny holes 1,000 times smaller than the diameter of a human hair. ❋ Unknown (2005)

But supercold temperatures do strange things with physics. ❋ M-mv (2004)

Normality returns when the supercold air chases the SCIENTIST'S SON down a hallway, only 1 step behind him. ❋ Patternjuggler (2004)

Do not use supercold compresses on the spot, because it is extremely sensitive and can be quite painful. ❋ D.V.M. Donna Kelleher (2003)

The converters alone won't get it down in time to prevent shock to the supercold systems. ❋ Cook, Glen (1985)

Those sister worlds were strung across the black sky now, like beads on an unseen string, each aglow with the color of its own synthetic biosphere: supercold liquid helium, frigid methane, hard vacuum, hot carbon dioxide, boiling sulphur. ❋ Pohl, Frederik & Williamson, Jack (1963)
