We apply our recently developed model of a Bose condensate of quantum kink wave in solid He4 to understand recent torsional oscillator experimental results of the citical velocities and the effect of the steady and oscillating rotations at…
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…
The shear modulus of solid 4He below 200 mK exhibits an unusual increase, the characteristics of which show remarkable similarities to those of the period reduction in torsional oscillator experiments. We systematically studied the drive…
We have measured the melting curve of $^4$He in the temperature range from 10 to 400 mK with the accuracy of about 0.5 $\mu$bar. Crystals of different quality show the expected $T^4$-dependence in the range from 80 to 400 mK without any…
This work aims to provide accurate and wide-ranging experimental new speed of sound data $w$($p$,$T$) of two binary ($CH_{4}$ + $He$) mixtures at a nominal helium content of 5% and 10% at pressures $p$ = (0.5 up to 20) MPa and temperatures…
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…
Electrospun polymer jets are imaged for the first time at an ultra-high rate of 10,000 frames per second, investigating the process dynamics, and the instability propagation velocity and displacement in space. The polymer concentration,…
A theory of non-equilibrium (``shot'') noise and high frequency conductance in diffusive mesoscopic conductors with screening is presented. Detailed results are obtained for two simple geometries, for both large and short electron-electron…
Previous heat-capacity measurements of our group had shown the possible existence of an anomalous quantum phase containing the zero-point vacancies (ZPVs) in 2D $^{3}$He. The system is monolayer $^{3}$He adsorbed on graphite preplated with…
Dislocations, one-dimensional lattice imperfections, are common to technologically important materials such as III-V semiconductors, and adversely affect heat dissipation in e.g., nitride-based high-power electronic devices. For decades,…
We report the first study of the depolarization behavior of spin polarized 3He in a mixture of 3He-4He at a temperature below the 4He Lambda point in a deuterated TetraPhenyl Butadiene-doped deuterated PolyStyrene (dTPB-dPS) coated acrylic…
Non-linear theory of diffusion of impurities in porous materials upon ultrasonic treatment is described. It is shown that at a defined value of deformation amplitude, an average concentration of vacancies and temperature as a result of the…
We study the spherical collapse of non-top-hat matter fluctuations in the presence of dark energy with arbitrary sound speed. The model is described by a system of partial differential equations solved using a pseudo-spectral method with…
The interaction of crystalline defects leads to strain hardening in bulk metals. Metals with high stacking fault energy (SFE), such as aluminum, tend to have low strain hardening rates due to an inability to form stacking faults and…
We develop a microscopic theory of the scattering, transmission, and sticking of 4He atoms impinging on a superfluid 4He slab at near normal incidence, and inelastic neutron scattering from the slab. The theory includes coupling between…
We use the phase-resolved imaging to directly study the nonlinear modification of the wavelength of spin waves propagating in 100-nm thick, in-plane magnetized YIG waveguides. We show that, by using moderate microwave powers, one can…
Dilute frozen solutions of the single molecule magnet Ni$_4$ (S=4) have been studied using high frequency D-band (130 GHz) EPR. Despite the random orientation of the molecules, well defined EPR absorption peaks are observed, due to the…
Disorder in the heterogeneous material stack of semiconductor spin qubit systems introduces noise that compromises quantum information processing, posing a challenge to coherently control large-scale quantum devices. Here, we exploit…
We have calculated the structures and the emergent spectra of stationary, geometrically thin accretion disks around 100 and 1000 M_sun black holes in both the Schwarzschild and extreme Kerr metrics. Equations of radiative transfer,…
Hetero-epitaxial crystalline films underlie many electronic and optical technologies but are prone to forming defects at their hetero-interfaces. Atomic-scale defects such as threading dislocations that propagate into a film impede the flow…
