I present here a microscopic theory for the superfluidity of $^4$He (He II) derived from experiments, and answer its essential questions. With a "momenton" model, the superfluid is shown to feature as a "harmonic superfluid". In which a new…
The paper is concerned with the interpretation of many experiments that have been reported recently on the production of quantum turbulence by oscillating spheres, wires and grids in both 4He and 3He-B at temperatures so low that there is a…
The main candidate for the superfluid pathways in solid Helium-4 are dislocations with Burgers vector along the hcp symmetry axis. Here we focus on quantum behavior of a generic edge dislocation which can perform superclimb -- climb…
We compare the decay of turbulence in superfluid $^4$He produced by a moving grid to the decay of turbulence created by either impulsive spin-down to rest or by intense ion injection. In all cases the vortex line density $L$ decays at late…
