A supersolid is a counter-intuitive state of matter that combines the frictionless flow of a superfluid with the crystal-like periodic density modulation of a solid. Since the first prediction in the 1950s, experimental efforts to realize…
Assuming that the well-confirmed non-classical rotational inertia (NCRI) effect in solid $^4$He, suggested by Leggett, indicates supersolid behavior, we make a number of remarks about both theory and experiment. (1) The long-wavelength,…
Rotational superradiance was predicted theoretically decades ago, and is chiefly responsible for a number of important effects and phenomenology in black-hole physics. However, rotational superradiance has never been observed…

The question of whether a Bose solid has a superfluid fraction is discussed. We confirm and expand on the remark of Chester that quantum fluctuations make this inevitable, roughly estimate its magnitude, and show that true rigid rotation…
The existence of a paradoxical supersolid phase of matter, possessing the apparently incompatible properties of crystalline order and superfluidity, was predicted 50 years ago. Solid helium was the natural candidate, but there supersolidity…
