3: Superfluid Helium-3: From very low Temperatures to the Big Bang

The Dvořák Lecture Wednesday, 08/06/2011 15:00 - 17:00

Speakers: Prof. Dieter Vollhardt (University of Augsburg, Germany)
Place: Lecture Hall of the Institute of Physics , Pod vodárenskou věží 1, Prague 8
Presented in English
Organisers: Institute of Physics

Since their discovery in 1971 the superfluid phases of Helium-3 have proved to be the ideal testing ground for many fundamental concepts of modern physics. Phenomena such as Cooper pairing, macroscopic quantum coherence, spontaneous breaking of high symmetries, and the formation of exotic topological defects are not only an important enrichment of the physics of condensed matter, but also provide important links to particle physics, the structure of the early universe and, most recently, quantum turbulence. In my lecture I will present a simple introduction into the physics of superfluid Helium-3, and describe the progress made in this fascinating field of basic research.
