A-B transition in superfluid He and cosmological phase transitions

Mark Hindmarsh, J. A. Sauls, Kuang Zhang +10

First order phase transitions in the very early universe are a prediction of many extensions of the Standard Model of particle physics and could provide the departure from equilibr…

Nanofluidic platform for studying the first-order phase transitions in superfluid helium-3

Petri J. Heikkinen, Nathan Eng, Lev V. Levitin +9

The symmetry-breaking first-order phase transition between superfluid phases He-A and He-B can be triggered extrinsically by ionising radiation or heterogeneous nucleation…

Progress on levitating a sphere in cryogenic fluids

Manuel Arrayás, Francis Bettsworth, Richard Haley +5

We present the working prototype of a levitation system designed for investigation of flows in cryogenic helium fluids. The current device allows the levitation of a superconductin…

Design of a system for controlling a levitating sphere in superfluid He at extremely low temperatures

M. Arrayás, José L. Trueba, Carlos Uriarte +1

We present a new mechanical probe to study the properties of superfluid He at microkelvin temperatures down to 100K. The setup consists of a set of coils for levitating a su…

Quartz Tuning Fork: Thermometer, Pressure- and Viscometer for Helium Liquids

R. Blaauwgeers, M. Blazkova, M. Clovecko +10

Commercial quartz oscillators of the tuning-fork type with a resonant frequency of ~32 kHz have been investigated in helium liquids. The oscillators are found to have at best Q val…
