Sound propagation in coexistent Bose and Fermi superfluids in aerogel.

چکیده
We report the first observation of longitudinal sound propagation in three dimensionally distributed Bose and Fermi superfluids in an acoustic investigation of phase separated 3He-4He mixtures confined to aerogel. At mK temperatures, this inhomogeneous system exhibits simultaneous 3He and 4He superfluidity leading to two "slow modes" along with the conventional sound mode. We also infer the superfluidity of isolated bubbles of pure 3He in a large 4He concentration sample.

Sound Propagation and Transport Properties of Liquid 3 He in
Superfluid 3He confined in aerogel offers a unique chance to study the effects of a short mean free path on the properties of a well defined superfluid Fermi liquid with anisotropic pairing. Transport coefficients and collective excitations, e.g. longitudinal sound, are expected to react sensitively to a short mean free path and to offer the possibility for testing recently developed models for...
متن کاملUltracold heteronuclear molecules and ferroelectric superfluids.
We analyze the possibility of a ferroelectric transition in heteronuclear molecules consisting of Bose-Bose, Bose-Fermi, or Fermi-Fermi atom pairs. This transition is characterized by the appearance of a spontaneous electric polarization below a critical temperature. We discuss the existence of a ferroelectric Fermi liquid phase for Fermi molecules and the existence of a ferroelectric superflui...
متن کاملDynamics of Bose condensed gases in highly deformed traps
We provide a unified investigation of normal modes and sound propagation at zero temperature in Bose condensed gases confined in highly asymmetric harmonic traps and interacting with repulsive forces. By using hydrodynamic theory for superfluids we obtain explicit analytic results for the dispersion law of the low energy discretized modes for both cigar and disk shaped geometries, including the...
متن کاملTransport in unconventional superconductors: Application to liquid He in aerogel
We consider quite generally the transport of energy and momentum in unconventional superconductors and Fermi superfluids to which both impurity scattering treated within the t-matrix approximation and inelastic scattering contributes. A new interpolation scheme for the temperature dependence of the transport parameters is presented which preserves all analytical results available for T→0 and T→...
متن کاملMeasurement of Sound Velocity in a Fermi Gas near a Feshbach Resonance
Sound waves are excited in an optically trapped degenerate Fermi gas of spin-up and spin-down atoms with magnetically tunable interactions. Measurements are made throughout the crossover region, from a weakly interacting Fermi gas through the resonant Fermi superfluid regime to a Bose condensate of dimer molecules. The measured sound velocities test theories of hydrodynamic wave propagation and...
