Non-linear effects and shock formation in the focusing of a spherical acoustic wave : Numerical simulations and experiments in liquid helium
C. Appert, C. Tenaud, X. Chavanne +3
The focusing of acoustic waves is used to study nucleation phenomena in liquids. At large amplitude, non-linear effects are important so that the magnitude of pressure or density o…
Nucleation in a Fermi liquid at negative pressure
Frederic Caupin, Sebastien Balibar, Humphrey J. Maris
Experimental investigation of cavitation in liquid helium 3 has revealed a singular behaviour in the degenerate region at low temperature. As the temperature decreases below 80 mK,…
Cavitation pressure in liquid helium
Frederic Caupin, Sebastien Balibar
Recent experiments have suggested that, at low enough temperature, the homogeneous nucleation of bubbles occurs in liquid helium near the calculated spinodal limit. This was done i…
Anomaly in the stability limit of liquid helium 3
Frederic Caupin, Sebastien Balibar, Humphrey J Maris
We propose that the liquid-gas spinodal line of helium 3 reaches a minimum at 0.4 K. This feature is supported by our cavitation measurements. We also show that it is consistent wi…
Acoustic crystallization and heterogeneous nucleation
X. Chavanne, S. Balibar, F. Caupin
By focusing a high intensity acoustic wave in liquid helium, we have observed the nucleation of solid helium inside the wave above a certain threshold in amplitude. The nucleation…
