Strong-Coupling Effects in "Dirty" Superfluid $^3He$

Soft Condensed Matter 2009-11-07 v2

Abstract

The contribution of the strong-coupling effects to the free energy of the "dirty" superfluid 3He^3He is estimated using a simple model. It is shown that the strong-coupling effects are less susceptible to the quasiparticle scattering events in comparison to the weak-coupling counterpart. This supports the conclusion about stabilization of the BB-phase in aerogel environment at pressures where the AA-phase takes over in bulk superfluid 3He^3He, in accordance with recent experimental observations in zero magnetic field.
