Description

Theoreticians agree to say that the superfluidity of a Bose solid can exist. The experiments to detect such an effect have failed up to now. We present here an argument that justifies the exploration of the 1 mK-20 mK temperature range. We have made an experiment to detect a mass flow through the solid 4He down to 4 mK. No anomalies effect occurred, this result still lowers the upper limit for the superfluidity of solid 4He
