The recently-discovered MgB2 super-conductor has a transition temperature Tc approaching 40K, placing it intermediate between the families of low and high temperature super-conductors (LTS and HTS). In practical applications,…
We have observed hysteresis in superconducting resistive transition curves of Ba$_{0.07}$K$_{0.93}$Fe$_2$As$_2$ ($T_c\sim$8 K) below about 1 K for in-plane fields. The hysteresis is not observed as the field is tilted away from the $ab$…
High-Tc cuprate, A3C60 and other unconventional superconductors (SCs) have very high Tc with respect to the energy scale of superconducting (SC) charges inferred from the superfluid density (SFD). The observed linear dependence of Tc on the…
We present an asymptotic analysis of the effects of rapid rotation on the ground state properties of a superfluid confined in a two-dimensional trap. The trapping potential is assumed to be radial and homogeneous of degree larger than two…
We performed small-angle X-ray scattering measurements of liquid Te using a synchrotron radiation facility and observed the maximum scattering intensity near 620 K in the supercooled region (melting temperature 723 K). This result is an…
Observations of tidal disruption events (TDEs) on a timescale of years after the main flare show evidence of continued activity in the form of optical/UV emission, quasi-periodic eruptions, and delayed radio flares. Motivated by this, we…
Vortex flow remains laminar up to large Reynolds numbers (Re~1000) in a cylinder filled with 3He-B. This is inferred from NMR measurements and numerical vortex filament calculations where we study the spin up and spin down responses of the…
The thermo-mechanical effect in superfluid helium is used to create an initial chemical potential difference, $\Delta \mu_0$, across a solid $^4$He sample. This $\Delta \mu_0$ causes a flow of helium atoms from one reservoir filled with…
The rigid double-torus torsional oscillator (TO) is constructed to reduce any elastic effects in-herent to complicate TO structures, allowing explicit probing for a genuine supersolid signature. We investigated the frequency- and…
Bistability and hysteresis of magnetohydrodynamic dipolar dynamos generated by turbulent convection in rotating spherical fluid shells is demonstrated. Hysteresis appears as a transition between two distinct regimes of dipolar dynamos with…
