This is a study of conditions, substances, and processes at extremely low temperatures. Using liquid nitrogen, the presenter shows how substances change from solid to liquid gas, describes the nature and importance of thermal energy in matter, illustrates the behavior of heat, demonstrates how substances change when their temperature is varied by hundreds of degrees.
The program is available by prior arrangement anytime during normal hours or off-site. It normally lasts about 1/2 hour, but can be extended. Advance registration is necessary to ensure staff and facilities are available.
