Halperin W.P. (Ed.) Progress in Low Temperature Physics, Volume XIV

Amsterdam: North-Holland, 2005, -483 p.The fourteenth volume of Progress in Low Temperature Physics marks 40 years of achievement that have appeared in this book series, charting developments in low temperature physics in what has become a highly diversified and increasingly important subject area. As our literature ecomes progressively larger and more interdisciplinary many of us have serious concerns that we are not able to keep ourselves au courant. And now the growing number of conference proceedings, preprints, periodicals, books, and popular journal articles have been joined by various lectronic forms of dissemination of our research. In this environment, the book series Progress in Low Temperature Physics assumes a particular responsibility to continue the strong tradition of excellent reviews, guiding our reading of the literature and providing direction for future research possibilities. In the present volume of this series you find the main theme to be research on superfluid and adsorbed phases of helium.The Landau critical velocity, P.V.E McClintock and R.M. Bowley
Spin supercurrent and novel properties of NMR in ³He, Yu.M. Bunkov
Nucleation of the AB transition in superfluid 3He: experimental and theoretical considerations, P. Schiffer, D.D. Osheroff and A.J. Leggett
Experimental properties of ³He adsorbed on graphite, H. Godfrin and H.-J. Lauter
The properties of multilayer ³He–⁴He mixture films, R.B. Hallock
