Hi everyone,
As you might gather from my moniker, I am a writer. I'm working on a sort of crime novel and have a weird question for you. I have a character who wants to kill another character using a particle detector. I have a couple ideas already but need one using a solid-state semiconductor detector, which obviously is difficult with the detector alone. Thus I'm thinking about the dilution refrigerator.
Could one have one of those just sort sitting in one's lab (with, I presume, the detectors inside it), and would it get tremendously cold on the outside--so cold, in fact, that you could press someone against it and freeze them (or their skin, anyway)?
Other ideas welcome as well...
Thanks!
