Ultrahigh vacuums with a basic pressure of less than 5 x l0/sup -10/ mm Hg were routinely produced and maintained for several months by means of an oil diffusion pump. An isolation trap charged with activated alumina of large cross section is placed between pump and glass system. The back flow of oil vapors into the experimental apparatus was completely prevented without cooling. (tr- auth)
