In this work we evaluate the $^1S_0$ superfluidity of $\Lambda$ hyperons in $\beta$-stable strange hadronic matter. We investigate the equation of state (EOS) of hadronic matter at finite values of baryon density and temperature in the…
Supersolid helium has a rather low transition temperature and a small critical velocity, compared with liquid helium. These properties could be explained in terms of helium's spectrum structure and quantum jumps involving large momentum…

Supersolidity -- a quantum-mechanical phenomenon characterized by the presence of both superfluidity and crystalline order -- was initially envisioned in the context of bulk solid helium, as a possible answer to the question of whether a…
Superfluid 4He, the first superfluid ever discovered, is in some ways the least well understood. Unlike 3He superfluid, or the variety of Bose-Einstein condensates of ultracold gases, superfluid 4He is a very dense liquid of strongly…
We report the observation of low-lying collective charge and spin excitations in the second Landau level at {\nu} = 2 + 1/3 and also for the very fragile states at {\nu} = 2 + 2/5, 2 + 3/8 in inelastic light scattering experiments. These…
