We have made simultaneous torsional oscillator and transverse NMR measurements (at 165 kHz) on 3He contained within aerogels with nominal densities of 1% and 2% of solid glass. The superfluid transition is seen simultaneously by both…
We have used a torsional oscillator with square cross section and a resonance frequency of 185 Hz to confirm the nonclassical rotational inertia (NCRI) discovered by Kim and Chan\cite{1,2}. We have also found a strong correlation between…
This paper presents an analysis of the motion of an neutral impurity species in a nanometer scale $^4$He cluster, extending a previous study of the dynamics of an ionic impurity. It is shown that for realistic neutral impurity-He…
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…
The elastic properties of hcp $^4$He samples have been investigated using low frequency (20 Hz to 20 kHz) high sensitivity sound transducers. In agreement with the findings of other workers, most samples studied grew very significantly…
The torsional oscillator is the chief instrument for investigating supersolidity in solid 4He. These oscillators can be sensitive to the elastic properties of the solid helium, which show anomalies over the same range of temperature in…
Our experiments show that in $^4$He crystals, the binding of $^3$He impurities to dislocations does not necessarily imply their pinning. Indeed, in these crystals, there are two different regimes of the motion of dislocations when…
We carried out quartz crystal microbalance experiments of a 5 MHz AT-cut crystal for superfluid 4He films on Grafoil (exfoliated graphite) with a small amount of 3He up to 0.40 atoms/nm2. We found that the mass decoupling from oscillating…
Oscillatory heat evolution in sorption of H2 and D2 in Pd can be induced by admixture of ca. 10 % vol. of inert gases He, Ne, Ar, Kr or N2 to either isotope prior to its contact with palladium powder. The oscillations are represented in a…
The torsional oscillator experiments described here examine the effect of disorder on the non-classical moment of inertia (NCRI) of a solid 4He sample. The NCRI increases with increasing disorder, but the period changes responsible for this…
Intermittency is a hallmark of turbulence, which exists not only in turbulent flows of classical viscous fluids but also in flows of quantum fluids such as superfluid $^4$He. Despite the established similarity between turbulence in…
We report torsional oscillator supersolid studies of highly disordered samples of solid $^4$He. In an attempt to approach the amorphous or glassy state of the solid, we prepare our samples by rapid freezing from the normal phase of liquid…
We present results of the $Q^{-1}$ and period shift, $\Delta P$, for $^3$He confined in a 98% nominal open aerogel on a torsion pendulum. The aerogel is compressed uniaxially by 10% along a direction aligned to the torsion pendulum axis and…
We measure the absolute frequency of seven out of the nine allowed transitions between the 2$^3${\it S} and 2$^3${\it P} hyperfine manifolds in a metastable $^3$He beam by using an optical frequency comb synthesizer-assisted spectrometer.…
Slow oscillations of the magnetoresistance periodic in the inverse magnetic field with a frequency of 3.4 T have been identified in HoTe3. The temperature dependence of the oscillation amplitude is close to exponential even at low…
Solid He-4 is viewed as a nearly perfect Debye solid. Yet, recent calorimetry measurements by the PSU group (J. Low Temp. Phys. 138, 853 (2005) and Nature 449, 1025 (2007)) indicate that at low temperatures the specific heat has both cubic…
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)…
New high-resolution dissociative recombination rate coefficients of rotationally cool and hot H3+ in the vibrational ground state have been measured with a 22-pole trap setup and a Penning ion source, respectively, at the ion storage ring…
We show that there are restrictions on the maximum tipping angle that can be used without significantly raising the temperature of the He-3 distribution in high B/T spin-echo experiments with pure liquid He-3 and He3-He4 solutions. The…
The freezing and melting of $^{4}$He in various aerogels with porosities ranging from 92 to 97% was studied using longitudinal ultrasound. The freezing pressure, detected by a change in velocity and attenuation, was elevated from that of…
