Helium nanodroplets are fascinating systems that exhibit unique properties due to their superfluid nature. Superfluidity is a phase of matter characterized by the ability to flow without viscosity ...
In a new study published in Nature Physics, researchers have developed the first controlled method for exciting and observing Kelvin waves in superfluid helium-4. First described by Lord Kelvin in ...
Superfluid helium-3 (³He) is a fascinating state of matter that exhibits unique properties at extremely low temperatures. It exists in different phases, each characterized by distinct behaviors ...
This article was originally published with the title “ Quantized Vortex Rings in Superfluid Helium ” in Scientific American Magazine Vol. 211 No. 6 (December 1964), p. 116 doi:10.1038 ...
Superfluidity is a state of matter characterized by the complete absence of viscosity, allowing the fluid to flow without friction. This phenomenon occurs in certain quantum fluids, such as liquid ...
A team of Japanese researchers has discovered a method to control Kelvin wave excitation in superfluid helium-4. This breakthrough can refine our understanding of how energy moves in quantum fluids, ...
Turbulence can also occur in sound waves that propagate chaotically in certain media, such as superfluid helium. In the 1970s, Soviet scientists proposed that turbulence occurs when sound waves ...
