Condensed-matter physics: Up the magnetic pressure
Shaun Fisher1 & George Pickett1
Abstract
Observations of a phenomenon known as the magnetic fountain effect in superfluid helium are not just beautiful experiments, but could also supply a tool for studying many other exotic magnetic phenomena.
At temperatures just a few millikelvin above absolute zero, the light helium isotope 3He, in its liquid state, develops exotic superfluid properties1. Uniquely, this superfluidity allows the frictionless transport of not only mass, but also magnetism.
- Shaun Fisher and George Pickett are in the Department of Physics, Lancaster University, Lancaster LA1 4YB, UK.
