Book Description
Superfluid helium, first discovered in the 1930s, continues to provide scientists with a fascinating physical system rich with phenomena that challenge experimental and theoretical investigators. Moreover, much of the recent interest in superfluid helium has emanated from the wide range of technical applications for the fluid. The combination of anomalous heat transport, low viscosity and low temperature makes superfluid helium an ideal medium for cooling technologies that range from particle accelerators such as the LHC to space infrared telescopes like the recently launched SIRTF. In turn, these applications have inspired new basic investigations of the fluid dynamic behavior of superfluid helium. The presentation will review some of the macroscopic applications for superfluid helium and the relevant superfluid phenomena that support these applications. With the audience sufficiently motivated, we will turn to recent research on the transport properties of superfluid helium culminating in microscale investigations that may provide new insight into the basic physics of superfluid helium.

The Microscopic Theory of Superfluid He II and with Its QCE Superfluidity Mechanism Applied to Superconductors
Author: J. X. Zheng-Johansson
Publisher: Nova Publishers
ISBN: 9781590339749
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
The authors introduce the full content of the Microscopic Theory of Superfluid He II, developed since 1998; also given are brief accounts of the application of one concept from the theory, the QCE1 Superfluidity Mechanism, to superconductors. One peer review report writes: "The authors include more of the underlying physics than some earlier theories, and the comparisons they make with experimental data are satisfactory". The Microscopic Theory of Superfluid He II has several important features, which distinguishes this theory from the previous theories of He II. The immense volume of information the authors have today, especially the pieces of information revealing the microscopic dynamics of the system, was not available to the developers of the previous theories in the 1930s-1940s. This book also demonstrates how the general principles of quantum mechanics and condensed matter physics can be consistently applied to a given system with confidence, once a realistic microscopic model is derived for it. It demonstrates in turn the validity of the general physics principles in such an extreme system as the quantum fluid He II.

Macroscopic Theories of Superfluids
Author: G. Grioli
Publisher: CUP Archive
ISBN: 9780521375726
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
This book is based on lectures delivered at a meeting organised by the academia Nazionale dei Lincei with contributions from some of the leading research workers in the field. They deal with topics of contemporary interest such as: solitons, hydrodynamic and nonlinear problems in superfluids, turbulence, thermodynamics, first and second sound, and the comparison between superconductivity and superfluidity. Experimental results and theoretical considerations are included. Thus the book will be an invaluable survey for research workers in superfluidity.
