Supersolids are theoretically predicted quantum states that break the continuous rotational and translational symmetries of liquids while preserving superfluid transport properties. Over the last decade, much progress has been made in…
Recently, it has been argued by Kuklov et al., that unusual features associated with the superflow-through-solid effect observed in solid He4 can be explained by unique properties of dilute distribution of superfluid edge dislocations. We…
In this paper we attempt to construct the topological theory of superfluid helium $4$ in the framework of the (rigid) $U(1)$ model in which the initial $U(1)$ group is destroyed with appearance of (topologically nontrivial) domains…
In 1996 Lee, Osheroff and Richardson received the Nobel Prize for their 1971 discovery of superfluid helium 3 -- a discovery which opened the door to the most fascinating system known in condensed matter physics. The superfluid phases of…
Despite of remarkable successes the theory of superfluidity, until now we have no a physical explanation of an opportunity of existence of viscousless flow of liquid helium in viscous medium. The existence of superfluid flow becomes…
We report real-time simulations of far-from-equilibrium dynamics of a holographic superfluid in three dimensions. The holographic duality maps a strongly coupled superfluid to a weakly coupled theory with gravity in a higher-dimensional…
We present data that show a cycling transition can be used to detect and image metastable He$_2$ triplet molecules in superfluid helium. We demonstrate that limitations on the cycling efficiency due to the vibrational structure of the…
Highly anisotropic "nematically ordered" aerogel induces global uniaxial anisotropy in superfluid 3He. The anisotropy lowers symmetry of 3He in aerogel from spherical to axial. As a result instead of one transition temperature in the state,…

Superfluidity and superconductivity have been studied widely since the last century in many different contexts ranging from nuclear matter to atomic quantum gases. The rigidity of these systems with respect to external perturbations results…
We discuss homogeneous nucleation in a first-order chiral phase transition within an effective field theory approach to low-energy QCD. Exact decay rates and bubble profiles are obtained numerically and compared to analytic results obtained…
Superfluid phases of 3He are quantuim liquids with the interacting fermionic and bosonic fields. In many respects they can simulate the interacting quantum fields in the phyiscal vacuum. One can observe analogs of such phenomena as axial…
The range of critical thermal fluctuations in classical bulk superconductors is extremely small and especially in low fields hardly experimentally inaccessible. With a new type of calorimeter we have been able to resolve a small lambda…
We provide a comprehensive account of prethermal discrete time crystals within classical Hamiltonian dynamics, complementing and extending our recent work [Phys. Rev. Lett. 127, 140602 (2021)]. Considering power-law interacting spins on…
A quantum system can undergo a continuous phase transition at the absolute zero of temperature as some parameter entering its Hamiltonian is varied. These transitions are particularly interesting for, in contrast to their classical finite…
The nucleation of the first order phase transition of superfluid 3He-B from superfluid 3He-A is quite remarkable since it requires a seed of the order of a micron. We have studied this nucleation for 3He confined to a very dilute silica…
Interest in the dynamical arrest leading to a fluid --> solid transition in thermal and athermal systems has led to questions about the nature of these transitions. These jamming transitions may be dependent on the influence of extended…
In this work we start from the assumption that normal solid to supersolid (NS-SS) phase transition is continuous, and develop a phenomenological Landau theory of the transition in which superfluidity is coupled to the elasticity of the…
The experimental parameter ranges needed to generate superfluidity in optical and drag experiments in GaAs double quantum wells are determined, using a formalism that includes self-consistent screening of the Coulomb pairing interaction in…
We present the detection of the highly forbidden $2^{3\!}S_1 \rightarrow 3^{3\!}S_1$ atomic transition in helium, the weakest transition observed in any neutral atom. Our measurements of the transition frequency, upper state lifetime, and…
