A team of Japanese researchers has discovered a method to control Kelvin wave excitation in superfluid helium-4. This breakthrough can refine our understanding of how energy moves in quantum fluids, ...

Scientists have created a “giant quantum vortex” that is able to mimic a black hole and could help reveal their mysteries. Research hope to use the experiment – which uses superfluid helium to model ...

Superfluid helium-3 is a paradigmatic quantum liquid, exhibiting unconventional pairing and a range of distinct superfluid phases. When confined in aerogels, which are highly porous materials, the ...

Scientists have created a giant quantum vortex to mimic a black hole in superfluid helium that has allowed them to see in greater detail how analogue black holes behave and interact with their ...

Step inside the strange world of a superfluid, a liquid that can flow endlessly without friction, defying the common-sense rules we experience every day, where water pours, syrup sticks and coffee ...

It may sound unbelievable, but new research suggests that instead of being featureless, dark matter could actually behave like a cosmic superfluid, forming swirling vortex lines and stable rotating ...

(Nanowerk News) Lord Kelvin theorized in 1880 that stimulating a thin vortex line would produce a helical deformation, later known as a Kelvin wave. While these waves have been observed in classical ...

Heat is not supposed to behave like this. In everyday life, warmth seeps and diffuses, spreading from hot to cold in a slow, smearing process that never looks anything like a crisp sound wave. Yet ...
