The invention provides a low temperature probe having a high sensitivity
by reducing a heat intrusion into a receive coil. A heat making an
intrusion into a coil is suppressed by inserting a heat radiation shield
in which a temperature is controlled at about 100 K to a portion between
an outer container of a probe and a coil portion. A heat radiation shield
bore sleeve is provided in a heat radiation bore, is connected to the
heat radiation shield, and is cooled by a second heat exchanger. Further,
the coil portion is cooled by a first heat exchanger. In preparation for
a contraction at a time of being cooled, the outer container, the heat
radiation shield and the coil portion are connected by using a fixing
portion, and a heat relieving mechanism or a contraction relieving
mechanism is provided in a root side (an opposite side to the fixing
portion) of the heat radiation shield and the coil portion. The fixing
portion is formed in a shape and made of a material having a small heat
intrusion amount and having a small heat contraction.
