“This superfluid has its own heat transport, and primarily interacts with probes inserted in the bulk.” This effect has some especially interesting consequences for the superfluid’s mechanical ...

"Superfluid helium-3 feels like a vacuum to a rod moving through it, although it is a relatively dense liquid. There is no resistance, none at all," said physicist Samuli Autti of Lancaster ...

When helium-3 is cooled to millikelvin temperatures it becomes a superfluid – a fluid with zero viscosity that can flow forever without any of its kinetic energy being dissipated as heat. Helium-3 ...

Physicists have developed a fluid which has “negative mass” — meaning it accelerates toward you when it is pushed away. Normally when a substance is pushed it follows the direction of the for… ...

Superfluid-superconductor Relationship Is Detailed Date: August 3, 2008 Source: Washington University in St. Louis Summary: Scientists have studied superconductors and superfluids for decades.

For these superfluid properties to emerge, liquids such as helium have to be cooled to extremely low temperatures. "If your morning coffee was a superfluid, and you stirred it with a spoon, ...

In the superfluid case, light would flow around the air bubble and continue down the cable. But wait, there's more. Superfluids have a critical flow speed as well.

Superfluid helium-3 is an extremely versatile macroscopic quantum system. Research on it influences a lot of other fields not directly related, such as the study of the Higgs mechanism, ...

Superfluid light could also have applications in light transport optimization. “One straightforward implication is related to transport in the presence of noise,” Leboeuf said.

Recent physics studies have found that light can sometimes flow in unexpected ways, behaving like a so-called "superfluid." Superfluids, such as ultracold atomic gases or helium-4 below specific ...

A mix of superfluid and superconductor inside neutron stars may slow their spin. Matthew Francis – Oct 3, 2012 11:30 am | 15 The nebula surrounding the pulsar PSR B1509-58, as seen by the ...

If dark matter forms a superfluid at the galactic scale, it could give rise to a new force that would account for the observations that don’t fit the cold dark matter model. Yet at the scale of galaxy ...
