Abstract

A shield for a cryogenic chamber and a cryogenic chamber comprising a shield are described. In an example embodiment, a cryogenic chamber comprises an interior housing comprising housing walls that define an action chamber. The action chamber is configured to be cryogenically cooled to an action temperature. The cryogenic chamber further comprises an interior shield at least partially sandwiched within the housing walls. The interior shield is made of a first material that acts as a superconductor at the action temperature.
