Superfluidity is a well-characterized quantum phenomenon which entails frictionless-motion of mesoscopic particles through a superfluid, such as $^4$He or dilute atomic-gases at very low temperatures. As shown by Landau, the incompatibility…
Superfluid condensates are known to occur in contexts ranging from laboratory liquid helium to neutron stars, and are also likely to occur in cosmological phenomena such as axion fields. In the zero temperature limit, such condensates are…
Superfluidity---the suppression of scattering in a quantum fluid at velocities below a critical value---is one of the most striking manifestations of the collective behaviour typical of Bose-Einstein condensates. This phenomenon, akin to…
