Droplets can be levitated by their own vapour when placed onto a superheated plate (the Leidenfrost effect). It is less known that the Leidenfrost effect can likewise be observed over a liquid pool (superheated with respect to the drop),…

We report on the extension of the experiments (P. M. Walmsley et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 99, 265302 (2007)) on the decay of quasiclassical turbulence generated by an impulsive spin-down from angular velocity Omega to rest of superfluid 4He in…
