For today’s episode of For Science! we show you an easy way to get those pesky helium balloon down from the rafters after a ...
Solid helium, particularly helium-4 (^4He), exhibits fascinating properties at low temperatures, leading to unique phenomena such as superfluidity and supersolidity. These phenomena arise from the ...
A team of Japanese researchers has discovered a method to control Kelvin wave excitation in superfluid helium-4. This ...
Nonetheless, in a surprising number of cases its behavior resembles that of an ordinary classical solid ...
"Using superfluid helium has allowed us to study tiny surface waves in greater detail and accuracy than with our previous experiments in water," explains physicist Patrik Švančara of the ...
