Abstract
In the first part of this review the theory and operation of a conventional dilution refrigerator are explained in simple terms. The discussion of heat exchangers is, however, somewhat more detailed. In the second part several of the latest machines are discussed, including a refrigerator which reaches 2.0 mK and another which operates by an unconventional gas circulation cycle.Keywords
