Experimental observation of superfluidity in a microscopic cluster, $M:(^4He)_x$, of a molecule ($M$) and $x$ number of $^4He$ atoms (with $x$ ranging from 1 to many) is qualitatively analyzed. It concludes that: (i) each $^4He$ atom in the…
Although solid helium-4 (4He) may be a supersolid it also exhibits many phenomena unexpected in that context. We studied relaxation dynamics in the resonance frequency f(T) and dissipation D(T) of a torsional oscillator containing solid…
We report studies, using a two mode torsional oscillator, of the putative supersolid signature in polycrystalline 4He. Measurements at two frequencies enable us to eliminate the viscoelastic contribution to the signature, and other…
