Pressure cell for transport measurements under high pressure and low temperature in pulsed magnetic fields

We present a new specially designed pressure cell and technique adapted for resistivity measurements in pulsed magnetic fields up to 60 T at pressures up to at least 4 GPa, and temperatures down to 1.5 K. We show that heating effects during the pulse are acceptable (less than 1 K) and can be corrected allowing reliable temperature dependences of the magnetoresistance to be obtained. We illustrate the performance with a study of the phase diagram of the heavy fermion antiferromagnet CeRh₂Si₂.
