The unique superflow-through-solid effect observed in solid Helium-4 and attributed to the quasi-one-dimensional superfluidity along the dislocation cores exhibits two extraordinary features: (i) an exponentially strong suppression of the…
Recently, it has been argued by Kuklov et al., that unusual features associated with the superflow-through-solid effect observed in solid He4 can be explained by unique properties of dilute distribution of superfluid edge dislocations. We…
During the last decade experimental evidence is building that the mass supertransport through solid Helium-4 as well as the anomalously large matter accumulation in the bulk -- the giant isochoric compressibility (aka the syringe effect) --…
Glide and climb of quantum dislocations under finite external stress, variation of chemical potential and bias (geometrical slanting) in Peierls potential are studied by Monte Carlo simulations of the effective string model. We treat on…
The classical motion of gliding dislocation lines in slip planes of crystalline solid helium leads to plastic deformation even at temperatures far below the Debye temperature and can affect elastic properties. In this work we argue that the…
We calculate the dislocation glide mobility in solid $^4$He within a model that assumes the existence of a superfluid field associated with dislocation lines. Prompted by the results of this mobility calculation, we study within this model…
A significant accumulation of matter in solid Helium-4 observed during the superflow events, dubbed as the giant isochoric compressibility (or the syringe effect), is discussed within the model of dislocations with superfluid core. It is…
Dislocation model of the supersolid state of $^4$He was proposed in 1987 by one of the authors of the review. The model obtained strong support by numerous experimental and theoretical investigations from 2007 to date. In these…
Dislocations are shown to be smooth at zero temperature because of the effective Coulomb-type interaction between kinks. Crossover to finite temperature rougnehing is suggested to be a mechanism responsible for the softening of \he4 shear…
We develop a model for the gliding of dislocations and plasticity in solid He-4. This model takes into account the Peierls barrier, multiplication and interaction of dislocations, as well as classical thermally and mechanically activated…
Solid He4 is viewed as a nearly perfect Debye solid. Yet, recent calorimetry indicates that its low-temperature specific heat has both cubic and linear contributions. These features appear in the same temperature range ($T \sim 200$ mK)…
Superfluidity, liquid flow without friction, is familiar in helium. The first evidence for "supersolidity", its analogue in quantum solids, came from recent torsional oscillator (TO) measurements involving 4-He. At temperatures below 200…
We calculate properties of a model of $^4$He in Vycor using the Path Integral Monte Carlo method. We find that $^4$He forms a distinct layered structure with a highly localized first layer, a disordered second layer with some atoms…
We report low temperature measurements of bulk solid $^4$He in a two-frequency compound torsional oscillator with both annular and open cylinder sample geometries. The oscillators were designed to suppress period shifts arising from all…
The low temperature properties of solid $^4$He contained in porous Vycor glass have been investigated utilizing a two-mode compound torsional oscillator. At low temperatures, we find period shift signals for the solid similar to those…
The recent torsional oscillator results of Kim and Chan suggest a supersolid phase transition in solid He-4 confined in Vycor. We have used a capacitive technique to directly monitor density changes for helium confined in Vycor at low…
Motivated by recent experiments on the supersolid behavior of $^4$He, we study the effect of an edge dislocation in promoting superfluidity in a Bose crystal. Using Landau theory, we couple the elastic strain field of the dislocation to the…
We argue that the three key phenomena recently observed in solid $^4$He---mass supertransport, anomalous isochoric compressibility (syringe effect), and giant plasticity---are closely linked to each other through the physics of an…
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…
In the vicinity of the insulator-to-superfluid quantum phase transition in its core, a dislocation in a He-4 crystal supports particle-hole excitations with arbitrary small gaps. These exotic analogs of Frenkel interstitial-vacancy pairs…
