A study pertaining to a very low temperature hydrogen maser feasibility

Very low temperature atomic hydrogen masers were developed. The advantages over room temperature hydrogen masers include higher radiated power due to the higher beam intensities possible using low temperature techniques and the much smaller electron spin flip cross section at low temperatures, lower cavity and amplifier noise temperatures, increased stability against mechanical creep at low temperatures, and opportunities to extend H atom collision studies to low temperatures, where quantum effects and details of the interatomic potentials are much more important.
