HISTORY
• 1908 – 4𝐻𝑒 was cooled below 4.2 K and liquefied
• 1927 – 4𝐻𝑒 was cooled below 2.17 K and phase transition to
superfluid took place
• 1938 – superfluid properties of liquid 4𝐻𝑒 were estabilished
• 1972 – two of the superfluid transitions in 3𝐻𝑒 were observed

WHY ONLY SOME CHEMICAL ELEMENTSCAN BECOME SUPERFLUIDS?
• Classical fluid – its roperties are purely determined by the laws of classical
mechanics
• Quantum fluid – remains fluid at such low temperatures that the effects of
quantum mechanics play a dominant role
• For quantum fluid we would search the element which atoms weakly interact
between each other

HELIUM VERSUS NEON
• The interatomic potential contains a
short ranged repulsion and a weak
but long ranged van der Waals
attraction
• The potential near the attractive
minimum can be represented by
Lennard-Jones type potential:
𝑉 𝑟 = 𝜖0(𝑑12
𝑟12− 2
𝑑6

WHY LIQUID HELIUM DOES NOTCRYSTALLIZE, EVEN AT ABSOLUTE ZERO?
• Quantum fluids have zero point motion
• Einstein oscillator phonon model states that each atom in the crystal
vibrates around its equilibrium position as an independent quantum
harmonic oscillator
• The zero point energy per atom is: 𝐸0 =3
2ℏ𝜔0
• The zero point energy of helium is about 7 meV
• This would be equivalent to a thermal motion corresponding to about 70 K

SUPERFLUID 4𝐻𝑒 DISPERSION
• A superfluid acts as a single coherent object with its own
excitations called quasiparticles
• An object moving in a superfluid below critical velocity is
unable to create quasiparticles and is in a state of virtual
free fall
• A superfluid can also flow unimpeded down a capillary if
its velocity is not too high
![Page 18: SUPERFLUIDITY - fuw.edu.plrosiek/proseminarium/kulka_superfluidity.pdf · [4] James F. Annett, ”Superconductivity, Superfluids, and Condensates”, Oxford University Press, 2004](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060210/5f04857d7e708231d40e6216/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
SUPERFLUID 4𝐻𝑒 DISPERSION
• Conservation of energy and momentum gives:
1
2𝑀𝑉2 =
1
2𝑀𝑉′2 + 𝜀𝑘
𝑀𝑉 = 𝑀𝑉′ + ℏ𝑘
• We obtain a relation:
ℏ𝑉 ∙ 𝑘 −ℏ2𝑘2
2𝑀= 𝜀𝑘
• The magnitude of the velocity required to create an excitation is:
𝑉 =𝜀𝑘 +
ℏ2𝑘2
2𝑀ℏ𝑘
≈𝜀𝑘ℏ𝑘

3𝐻𝑒 SUPERFLUIDITY
• 3𝐻𝑒 is a spin ½ fermion
• At temepratures around mK 3𝐻𝑒
atoms form so-called Cooper pairs
which behave as spin 1 bosons
• It is similar to the electron pairing
in superconductivity
• There are two distinct superfluid
phases 3𝐻𝑒 A and 3𝐻𝑒 B which
have different types of pairing
states between atomsSource: [6]
