Resumen del libro
Magnetic traps are present in several science experiments, especially in those in which the aim is to isolate an object from the laboratory environment, to study its interaction with some element, as is the case of the study of superfluidity, where recently, it has become necessary to perform experiments in which the object of study is not physically attached to the laboratory environment. This book presents the design process of one of these traps, created to perform experiments in superfluidity, with an eminently practical approach but without neglecting the main theoretical elements.
