Decay of persistent currents in unsaturated superfluid 4He films

Creators

  • 1. Univ. of Massachusetts, Amherst

Description

Persistent currents of unsaturated 4He films are observed to decay at a rate which depends strongly on film thickness. Preliminary results on the temperature dependence of the decay rate are reported. Possible models which might explain the observed features of the decays are discussed
