What is the maximum amount of power a resistance thermometer at 4K could dissipate, and still be accurate to 1uK?
Let's suppose I wanted to measure the temperature of a device immersed in liquid helium at approximately 4K. How could I accomplish this to an accuracy of 1uK?
Explain to me how a lock in amplifier works.
What you described is not related to super conductors.
That's true of a non-superconducting transformer. But what about a superconducting transformer?
Can a superconducting transformer operate at DC?
If I wanted to load a current into a super conducting loop, how could I use a heat switch to accomplish that?
Explain to me how a superconducting heat switch works.
Let's suppose the dewer holds 1L of liquid helium.
How much liquid helium would that approach save, as a % compared to filling it with just liquid helium?
GPT nailed this answer perfectly. Which isn't surprising as there's gotta be _so_ many examples of people describing this industry standard solution.

Suppose I wanted to fill a warm, room temperature, dewer with liquid helium. How could I reduce the amount of liquid helium needed to cool the dewer down to 4k?
This is actually a real problem we faced at a company I used to work at. GPT sorry of kinda hits on the right solution. But only because it has a bunch of statistics from people saying "cancel out torque"
The right solution is to direct the boiled off helium into two nozzles in opposite directions to cancel our the forces.

How could I cancel out the torque induced by helium boil off?
Suppose I had a liquid helium dewer on a device that was extremely sensitive to forces. Would the boiling off of the helium pose a problem?
What material would you put in between the vaccume space of a dewer to prevent thermal radiation?
That makes more sense.
Explain to me how a dewer is constructed.
Are you sure that is correct?
Why else would a superconducting device use a vacuum chamber?
How does a vacuum chamber prevent magnetic interference?
