Electrons embedded in liquid $^3$He form mesoscopic bubbles with radii large compared to the interatomic distance between $^3$He atoms, voids of $N_{bubble}\approx 200$ $^3$He atoms, generating a negative ion with a large effective mass…
We have used a Hartree-type electron-helium potential together with a density functional description of liquid $^4$He and $^3$He to study the explosion of electron bubbles submitted to a negative pressure. The critical pressure at which…
We have measured the interaction between superfluid $^3$He-B and a micro-machined goalpost-shaped device at temperatures below $0.2\,T_c$. The measured damping follows well the theory developed for vibrating wires, in which the Andreev…
When an electron (or positronium atom) is injected into liquid helium with nearly zero energy, a bubble quickly forms around it. This phenomenon (which also occurs in liquid hydrogen, liquid neon and possibly in solid helium) lowers the…
The computational and theoretical analysis carried out in this article demonstrates the existence of a nontrivial mechanism for the compression of a submicron-sized gas bubble formed by a gas of classical ions and a gas of degenerate…
The problem of interacting electrons moving under the influence of a strong magnetic field in two dimensions on a finite disk is reconsidered. First, the results of exact diagonalizations for up to $N=9$ electrons for Coulomb as well as for…
We explore the possibility that the fast and exotic negative ions in superfluid helium are electrons bound to quantized vortex structures, the simplest being a ring. In the states we consider, the electron energy is only slightly below the…
We show that Bogoliubov's quasiparticle in superfluid $^3He-B$ undergoes the Zitterbewegung, as a free relativistic Dirac's electron does. The expectation value of position, as well as spin, of the quasiparticle is obtained and compared…
We show that ion masses in superfluid $^3$He ought to be enormously enhanced (by a factor of 100) as compared with the same ion masses in $^4$He measured at low temperature. We calculate precisely the dependence of the effective mass on…
We study the motion of an electron bubble in the zero temperature limit where neither phonons nor rotons provide a significant contribution to the drag exerted on an ion moving within the superfluid. By using the Gross-Clark model, in which…
Within Density Functional Theory, we have calculated the energy of the transitions from the ground state to the first two excited states in the electron bubbles in liquid helium at pressures from zero to about the solidification pressure.…
Collective motions of electrons in solids are often conveniently described as the movements of quasiparticles. Here we show that these quasiparticles can be hierarchical. Examples are valley electrons, which move in hyperorbits within a…
Physical reality of the existence of electron bubble in liquid $^4He$ (or $^3He$) renders a {\it clear experimental evidence} for a quantum particle (in an interacting environment as seen by electron in liquid helium) to occupy exclusively…
The electron bubble in superfluid helium has two degrees of freedom that may offer exceptionally low dissipation: the electron's spin and the bubble's motion. If these degrees of freedom can be read out and controlled with sufficient…
In a two-dimensional electron gas, the electron-electron interaction generally becomes stronger at lower carrier densities and renormalizes the Fermi liquid parameters such as the effective mass of carriers. We combine experiment and theory…
Sound propagation in superfluid $^3$He in aerogel is studied on the basis of a two-fluid model taking into account the effect by the drag force due to collisions between $^3$He-quasiparticles and aerogel molecules. The drag force plays a…
We construct model wavefunctions for a family of single-quasielectron states supported by the $\nu=1/3$ fractional quantum Hall (FQH) fluid. The charge $e^*$ = $e/3$ quasielectron state is identified as a composite of a charge-$2e^*$…
We have formulated the scattering theory on Majorana fermions emerging in the surface bound state of the superfluid $^3$He B-phase ($^3$He-B) by an impurity. By applying the theory to the electron bubble, which is regarded as the impurity,…
The contribution of the strong-coupling effects to the free energy of the "dirty" superfluid $^3He$ is estimated using a simple model. It is shown that the strong-coupling effects are less susceptible to the quasiparticle scattering events…
We study the influence of spin-orbit interactions on quasiparticle dispersions in two-dimensional electron and heavy-hole liquids in III-V semiconductors. To obtain closed-form analytical results, we restrict ourselves to spin-orbit…
