| contents | This is a short historical note about the visit of Prof. G. Klipping of Fritz Haber Institute, Germany, to the low temperature physics laboratory of Indian Institute of Technology, Madras. During his visit in 1979, Klipping delivered a series of lectures on cryogenic practices and low temperature physics in the physics department. The authors, both Masters degree students at that time, with a specialization in cryogenics, attended these lectures arranged by Prof. R. Srinivasan then head of the Low Temperature laboratory. In this non technical note, the authors attempt to portray the research philosophy and attitudes of Klipping as captured through many wise remarks and snippets which formed an integral part of his lectures. In the 1970-80s Klipping made invaluable contributions to the development of cryogenics research in India. |
