Hi

So if I want to set up 4 uncorrelated systems, that would require 20 tons of water split into 4 tubs. Each tub would be roughly 3' x 4' x 15'. Of course if they are all in the same basement, I still have a correlation problem. My guess is that no matter what I do, any system that controls all the systems
the same way will run into correlation.

Oils, silicon fluids, and the like mostly hold less heat than water so the
tubs would get bigger. Maybe a few tons of mercury...
Try about 145 tons of mercury per rubidium source as the specific heat of mercury is about 1/29 that of water.

This seems exceedingly unhealthy.... 145 tons of mercury in pools in the basement. Not that I don't deal with mercury at home, but fairly well contained and giving me readings in mm Hg as I go to work or come home.

Mineral oil seems more healthy. Not to speak of active systems.

Merry Christmas.

Cheers,
Magnus

At your location, at present, it wouldnt be a significant problem as long as the basement was unheated. Also good ventilation would help, together with a thin layer of oil on top of the mercury.
The biggest obstacle would be the cost of the Mercury.
