New modified way of relaxation calorimetry at very low temperatures

Our paper entitled "Relaxation calorimetry at very low temperatures for systems with internal relaxation" has been published in Review of Scientific Instruments. This work was selected as a Editor's Picks.

Here we presented the detailed introduction of our relaxation calorimetry designed for tiny samples down to very low temperatures of 0.03 K. Especially, we discussed our modified way of analysis provides the best solution when the relaxation curves which are modified by an internal thermal relaxation in the sample or in the sample stage of the specific heat cell.
