Critical Currents in Superfluid Helium Near T ,
The temperature dependence of the critical heat current Q, in He I1 has been measured in the temperature region 3. ("K) < T,-T< 1.2-("K). The result Qca(T,-~)1.07*0.01 is consistent with a divergent mutual friction near T, proposed recently by AHLERS. I. Introduction The resistanceless flow of superfluid helium is limited by critical relative velocities (v,-us), between its normal and superflui...
متن کاملDirect measurement of the critical velocity above which a tuning fork generates turbulence in superfluid helium
The dynamics of an electrically-driven 8 kHz quartz tuning fork has been studied experimentally in liquid helium-4 in the temperature range 1.3< T < 4.2K under the saturated vapour pressure. The fork has relatively large dimensions compared to standard 32 kHz fork used in recent investigations. The velocity of the tip of the fork prong is measured by the indirect electromechanical equivalent me...
متن کاملCritical Landau velocity in helium nanodroplets.
The best-known property of superfluid helium is the vanishing viscosity that objects experience while moving through the liquid with speeds below the so-called critical Landau velocity. This critical velocity is generally considered a macroscopic property as it is related to the collective excitations of the helium atoms in the liquid. In the present work we determine to what extent this concep...
متن کاملSuperfluid helium interferometers
S uperfluid helium is a macroscopic quantum system, as are superconductors, gaseous Bose–Einstein condensates, and the interiors of neutron stars. The common feature of those disparate systems is a complex “order parameter” having magnitude and phase. The order parameter can be a Schrödinger-like wavefunction, or it can be some other function that reflects the system’s physical state. A macrosc...
متن کاملDensity of Superfluid Helium Droplets
The classical integral cross sections of large superfluid 4He N droplets and the number of atoms in the droplets (N = 103 − 104) have been measured in molecular beam scattering experiments. These measurements are found to be in good agreement with the cross sections predicted from density functional calculations of the radial density distributions with a 10–90% surface thickness of 5.7Å. By usi...
