| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed a rapid caloric measurement system, which can measure a heat capacity within 0.1 second at low temperatures and high magnetic fields. At low temperatures, the paramagnetic nuclear spins contribute to the total heat capacity, which shows the slow thermal relaxation process. Therefore, the estimation of the electronic contribution to the heat capacity is difficult by the relaxation method. The rapid caloric measurements enable us to measure the heat capacity without the delayed contribution of the nuclear spins. We successfully performed the accurate measurements of the electronic heat capacity of copper at the low temperatures down to 0.6 K and the high magnetic fields up to 17.5 T.
