Because of the lack of a free neutron target, deuterium targets have been used extensively in studying the neutron structure. The unique spin structure of the 3He ground state wave function and the recent developments in laser technologies made polarized 3He targets widely used in many experiments from neutron electromagnetic form factor studies to nucleon spin structure function measurements a...

We study the effects of nuclear polarization M on the liquid-gas equilibrium phase diagram of 3He, in situations where the saturating vapour pressure increases or decreases as a function of M, and where a metamagnetic instability may occur in the liquid phase. Numerical predictions are given within the frame of a phenomenological model with parameters fitted to reproduce accurately the saturati...

We present the first measurements of the thermal conductivity of spin-polarized normal liquid 3He. Using the rapid melting technique to produce nuclear polarizations up to 0.7, and a vibrating wire both as a heater and a thermometer, we show that, unlike the viscosity, the conductivity increases much less than predicted for s-wave scattering. We suggest that this might be due to a small probabi...

Variational Fermi HNC calculations are performed for spin-polarized 3 ~ e liquid at zero temperature. The trial wave function is optimized by solving an Euler-Lagrange equation in the Fermi HNC approximation. Results for liquid structure function and one-particle momentum distribution are compared with the corresponding quantities of the spin-saturated liquid. In this report we present results ...

We present a finite temperature calculation of the transverse spin-diffusion coefficient, D⊥, in a dilute degenerate Fermi gas in the presence of a small external magnetic field, H. While the longitudinal diffusion coefficient displays the conventional low-temperature Fermi-liquid behavior, D‖ ∝ T−2, the corresponding results for D⊥ show three separate regimes: (a) D⊥ ∼ H−2 for T ≪ H; (b) D⊥ ∼ ...
