Abstract
The present invention provides centrifuges (e.g., analytical centrifuges) comprising a cooling assembly having a cooling surface disposed inside the centrifuge chamber and spaced apart from the rotor. The cooling surface disposed inside the centrifuge chamber, spaced apart from the rotor, and configured to exchange heat between the cooling assembly and the rotor, the thermal element thermally coupled to the cooling surface, and configured to control the temperature of the cooling surface.
