Observation of suppressed viscosity in the normal state of 3He due to superfluid fluctuations Open
Evidence of fluctuations in transport have long been predicted in 3 He. They are expected to contribute only within 100 μ K of T c and play a vital role in the theoretical modeling of ordering; they encode details about the Fermi liquid pa…

Observation of suppressed viscosity in the normal state of 3He due to superfluid fluctuations Open
By monitoring the quality factor of a quartz tuning fork oscillator we have observed a fluctuationd-driven reduction in the viscosity of bulk 3He in the normal state near the superfluid transition temperature, Tc. The…

Path-Dependent Supercooling of the Superfluid Transition Open
We examine the discontinuous first-order superfluid ^{3}He A to B transition in the vicinity of the polycritical point (2.232 mK and 21.22 bar). We find path-dependent transitions: cooling at fixed pressure yields a well-defined transition…
