Dzero experiment needs to drop the operating temperature of the superconducting solenoid. In order to do this, a cold compressor (vessel # RSB416), along with a two-phase return Dewar (vessel # RSB409) will be installed in Dzero Assembly building in the Helium refrigerator area (flow diagram attached). The cold compressor will be installed on a 2-phase Helium return line from the solenoid and its purpose will be to drop the return line and existing the subcooler (located in the solenoid Control Dewar) pressure, and therefore decrease the solenoid operating temperature.
