We have studied natural purity $^{4}$He single crystals and polycrystals between 10 and 600 mK using a torsional oscillator with a 2 cm$^{3}$ rigid cell made of sapphire with a smooth geometry. As the temperature was lowered, we observed…
We develop a theory in order to describe the effect of relaxation in a condensed medium upon the quantum decay of a metastable liquid near the spinodal at low temperatures. We find that both the regime and the rate of quantum nucleation…
The discovery by Kim and Chan (KC) of an anomalous decrease in the period of torsional oscillators (TO) containing samples of solid $^4$He at temperatures below 0.2 K was initially interpreted as a superfluid-like decoupling of a fraction…
We report studies of solid helium contained inside a torsional oscillator, at temperatures between 1.07K and 1.87K. We grew single crystals inside the oscillator using commercially pure $^4$He and $^3$He-$^4$He mixtures containing 100 ppm…
We report a systematic investigation of the physical properties and Fermi-surface topology of layered single-crystal \ce{SrCu4As2} using electrical transport, magnetotransport, and quantum-oscillation experiments plus band-structure…
We present a numerical study of a continuum plasticity field coupled to a Ginzburg-Landau model for superfluidity. The results suggest that a supersolid fraction may appear as a long-lived transient during the time evolution of the…
A torsional oscillator study of solid para-hydrogen has been carried out down to 20 mK in search for evidence of superfluidity. This work was inspired by the observation of the supersolid phase in solid He-4. We found evidence of a possible…
We have investigated the non-classical response of solid 4He confined in porous gold set to torsional oscillation. When solid helium is grown rapidly, nearly 7% of the solid helium appears to be decoupled from the oscillation below about…
Using a high-sensitivity torsional oscillator technique, we mapped the rotational and relaxational dynamics of solid helium-4 throughout the parameter range of the proposed supersolidity. We found evidence that the same microscopic…
This paper reports a suspended thin-film lithium niobate (LN) piezoelectric resonator platform surviving high annealing temperatures of 550 {\deg}C, among the highest temperature at which the thermal resilience of suspended LN resonators is…
A simple phenomenological model is developed for the recent torsional oscillator experiments on solid $^4$He. Within this model, for a homogeneous sample there is a specific quantitative relation between the change in the oscillator's…
Fundamental considerations predict that macroscopic quantum systems such as superfluids and the electrons in superconductors will exhibit oscillatory motion when pushed through a small constriction. Here we report the observation of these…
We have used nanoelectromechanical resonators to probe superfluid $^4$He at different temperature regimes, spanning over four orders of magnitude in damping. These regimes are characterized by the mechanisms which provide the dominant…
We have measured the melting pressure and pressure in the liquid at constant density of ultra-pure $^4$He (0.3 ppb of $^3$He impurities) with the accuracy of about 0.5 $\mu$bar in the temperature range from 10 to 320 mK. Our measurements…
Experiments aimed at quantifying the interface between quantum and classical physics necessarily require a high degree of isolation from the environment: wavefunction collapse and quantum gravity effects at laboratory scales are predicted…
The mechanical performance and microstructures of a CoCrNi medium-entropy alloy (MEA) and NCoCrNi, alloyed with 0.5at% N, after high pressure torsion (HPT) and subsequent annealing treatments in a temperature range of 150-1000 {\deg}C were…
We study the zero-temperature phase diagram of two-dimensional helium-4 using neural quantum states. Our variational description allows us to address liquid and solid phases using the same functional form as well as exploring possible…
Annealing Mg-implanted homoepitaxial GaN at temperatures at or above 1400 {\deg}C eliminates the formation of inversion domains and leads to improved dopant activation efficiency. Extended defects in the form of inversion domains contain…
The electrical conductivity and dielectric properties of Ni1.5Fe1.5O4 ferrite has been controlled by varying the annealing temperature of the chemical routed samples. The frequency activated conductivity obeyed Jonschers power law and…
The low-temperature (up to about 100K) collisional (de)excitation cross sections are computed using the full coupled-channel (CC) quantum dynamics for both Li$_2$ and Li$_2^+$ molecular targets in collision with $^4$He. The interaction…
