We have studied self-sustained, deformable, rotating liquid He cylinders of infinite length. In the normal fluid $^3$He case, we have employed a classical model where only surface tension and centrifugal forces are taken into account, as…
The conductivity of extremely high mobility dilute two-dimensional holes in GaAs changes linearly with temperature in the insulating side of the metal-insulator transition. Hopping conduction, characterized by an exponentially decreasing…
Recent measurements on ion conducting glasses have revealed that conductivity spectra for various temperatures and ionic concentrations can be superimposed onto a common master curve by an appropriate rescaling of the conductivity and…
We present measurements of superconducting transition temperature, resistivity, magnetoresistivity and temperature dependence of the upper critical field of Ta$_4$Pd$_3$Te$_{16}$ under pressures up to 16.4 kbar. All measured properties have…
We report measurements of the thermal Hall effect in single crystals of both pristine and isotopically substituted strontium titanate. We discovered a two orders of magnitude difference in the thermal Hall conductivity between…
Measurements are presented of the thermomechanical coefficient of normal liquid He-3 confined in a porous plug pre-plated with four monoloyers of He-4. These non-magnetic monolayers displace the magnetic solid-like He-3 monolayers that are…
We consider convection in an internally heated layer of fluid that is bounded below by a perfect insulator and above by a poor conductor. The poorly conducting boundary is modelled by a fixed heat flux. Using solely analytical methods, we…
We theoretically investigate the enhancement of thermoelectric cooling performance in thermoelectric devices made of materials with inhomogeneous thermal conductivity, beyond the usual practice of enhancing thermoelectric figure of merit…
Superfluids, such as superfluid $^3\mathrm{He}$ and $^4\mathrm{He}$, exhibit a broad range of quantum phenomena and excitations which are unique to these systems. Nanoscale mechanical resonators are sensitive and versatile force detectors…
This paper presents an analysis of a model problem, consisting of two interacting rigid rings, for the rotation of molecules in liquid $^4$He. Due to Bose symmetry, the excitation of the rotor corresponding to a ring of N helium atoms is…
Specific heat $C(T)$ measurements were made on single crystals of the superconducting filled skutterudite series Pr(Os$_{1-x}$Ru$_x$)$_4$Sb$_{12}$ down to 0.6 K. Crystalline electric field fits in the normal state produced parameters which…
We investigate the behavior of the collective excitations of adsorbed $^4$He in an ordered hexagonal mesopore, examining the crossover from a thin film to a confined fluid. Here we present the inelastic scattering results as a function of…
Heat conduction in a random packing of hard spheres is studied by nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulation. We find a hard-sphere random packing shows higher thermal conductivity than a crystalline packing with same packing fraction.…
We report microscopic calculations of the thermal conductivity, diffusion constant and thermal diffusion constant for classical solutions of $^3$He in superfluid $^4$He at temperatures $T \la 0.6$~K, where phonons are the dominant…
We have measured the pressure dependence of the supersolid fraction by a torsional oscillator technique. Superflow is found from 25.6 bar up to 136.9 bar. The supersolid fraction in the low temperature limit increases from 0.6 % at 25.6 bar…
The linear compressibilities and the thermal expansion of an untwinned, nearly optimal doped YBa2Cu3O6.94 single crystal were measured along the three crystallographic axes with a high-resolution dilatometer mounted in a high-pressure cell.…
The vast amount of computational studies on electrical conduction in solid-state electrolytes is not mirrored by comparable efforts addressing thermal conduction, which has been scarcely investigated despite its relevance to thermal…
The dependence of the electrical conductivity on the oxygen partial pressure is calculated for the prototypical perovskite $\Ba\Ti\O_3$ based on data obtained from first-principles calculations within density functional theory. The…
The probable observation of a supersolid helium phase was recently reported by Kim {\it et al}. In this article, we confirm their speculation. Based on a theoretical model for solid helium-4, we show that the emergence of such a phase is…
We study the low temperature conductivity of the electron accumulation layer induced by the very strong electric field at the surface of $\text{SrTiO}_3$ sample. Due to the strongly nonlinear lattice dielectric response, the…
