Abstract The mobility of N+ ions in ground-state helium gas at very low temperature is examined with explicit inclusion of spin–orbit coupling effects. The ionic kinetics is treated theoretically with the three-temperature model. The N+–He interaction potentials, including spin–orbit coupling, are determined using high-level ab initio calculations. Then, the classical and quantal transport cross sections, both needed in the computation of the mobility coefficients, are calculated in terms of the collisional energy of the N+–He system. The numerical results, at temperature 4.3 K, show the spin–orbit interactions have negligible effect on the mobility coefficients. Graphical abstract

A set of six platinum resistance thermometers of a form suitable for low temperature calorimetry has been made and calibrated in the region 11° to 90°K. by intercomparison with a similar thermometer which had been calibrated at the National Bureau of Standards. Above 90°K. calibration has been made on the International Temperature Scale.Using the intercomparison data, it has been possible to derive a method whereby for these thermometers the scale for the region 20° to 90°K. may be found to within 0.002°C. by means of fixed points. The method applies a 'Z function' of the type used at the National Bureau of Standards (13), plus a corrective term which depends upon the resistance of the thermometer at the boiling point of hydrogen and upon the normal constants which are determined for the International Temperature Scale above 90°K.
