SUMMARY:Confined superfluid He3: thoughts\, hints and facts - Dr. Antonio

DESCRIPTION: Although the phase diagram of bulk superfluid 3He is well kno
 wn\, novel\nsuperfluid phases are expected under conditions of spatial con
 finement. In\nthis talk I will discuss a couple of experiments designed to
  investigate the\nphysics of this system. The confinement geometry\, in th
 is case\, is that of a\nflat slab. Following the rationale behind this res
 earch and a - somewhat mild -\ntheoretical introduction to the physics of 
 superfluid 3He in general\, and\nconfined superfluid 3He in particular\, I
  will show some aspects of the\nexperimental research. One of the experime
 nts to be discussed will be a\nNuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) experiment
 \, which explores the magnetic\nproperties of superfluid 3He. The other ex
 periment\, a torsional oscillator\,\nis concerned with the flow properties
  of the superfluid. I will discuss both\nof them in as much detail as poss
 ible within my time allocation.\n\n... And\, yes\, there will be (a few) r
 esults\; hence the word  facts in the\ntitle.\n
