چکیده

(Dated: February 1, 2008) A normal-fluid component varying as T is observed at very low temperatures in superfluid He and He-He mixture films adsorbed in alumina powder. The normal fluid appears to arise from thermally excited third sound that has one-dimensional propagation characteristics. A Landau model of third sound excitations in an infinite cylindrical pore by Saam and Cole provides good agreement with the experimental measurements over a wide range of He and He coverages. However, it is unclear why the powder substrate can be modeled as having cylindrical pores.

] 5 O ct 1 99 9 Vortex core size in 3 He - 4 He filmswithmonolayer superfluid 4 He

The superfluid transition of He-He mixture films adsorbed on alumina powder is studied, with a He superfluid coverage near one layer. With up to 1.3 layers of He added, the transition becomes strongly broadened, indicating a linear increase in the vortex core size for He coverages below one layer. Annealing of the sample mixture at 4.2 K is found to be critically important in ensuring a homogen...

What Can We Learn from Comparison between Cuprates and He Films ? : Phase Separation and Fluctuating Superfluidity

In the underdoped, overdoped, Zn-doped or stripe-forming regions of high-Tc cuprate superconductors (HTSC), the superfluid density ns/m∗ at T → 0 shows universal correlations with Tc. Similar strong correlations exist between 2dimensional superfluid density and superfluid transition temperature in thin films of He in non-porous or porous media, and He/He film adsorbed on porous media. Based on ...

Excitations of superfluid helium in porous media

The elementary excitations of superfluid He, characterised by the phonon-roton dispersion curve, have been studied in great detail over the last forty years since the first observation of the roton in a pioneering neutron-scattering experiment in Stockholm in 1957 [1]. The interest today is turning towards the effect of disorder and confinement on these excitations, when e.g. helium is immersed...

Excitations of superfluid He in porous media: Aerogel and Vycor

We present precision neutron scattering measurements of the dynamic structure factor S(Q ,v) and the elementary excitations of liquid He immersed in aerogel and Vycor. In both porous media, liquid He supports two-dimensional ~2D! layer modes at wave vectors in the roton region that propagate in the liquid layers adjacent to the media walls. The layer modes have a rotonlike energy dispersion rel...

VISCOSITY COEFFICIENTS OF THE A-PHASE OF SUPERFLUID He AT LOW TEMPERATURES

It has been shown that the Boltzmann equation for the viscosity of the A-phase of superfluid 3He at low temperatures has the same form as for a normal Ferrni liquid. The viscosity coefficients A, B, C, D and E are derived exactly. The h , parameter plays an important role in determining the temperature dependence of the viscosity coefficients
