Abstract

The cryogenic ground support equipment (CGSE) is an important part of Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer-02 (AMS-02) experiment which is a particle physics experiment. CGSE is used to cool down the superconducting magnet of AMS-02 to its operating temperature of 1.8K and to fill the magnet helium tank with superfluid helium. This paper introduces the control system of CGSE and presents the performance of the system.
