Outline
Rotating Superfluid 3He in Aerogel
(1) Comparison with other data without rotation
The sample is 98 % arogel (Bunkov’s sample)
(2) Singular core cortex and the l-texture is strongly pinned
in A-like Phase
(3) Critical velocity for vortex penetration and persistent current
in B-Phase
PurposeP-wave superfluidity in aerogel:
Impurity effect of p-wave superfluid in aerogel
Rotation experiment of 3He superfluid in aerogel:non-uniformities of superfluid in aerogel or amorphous superfluid
1. Extremely hard type II superfluidityB → φ
Hc 1 → Ωc 1〜

2. What kind of vortices?3. Texture in aerogel and its coupling with flow
The texture is pinned strongly in A-like phase and weakly in B-phase.

The main peak height decreased and the spectrum becomes slightly broader to higher frequency : ( 0→-6.26 rad/s→0)
1) The peak height deceases for any change of rotation speed and direction.2) The A-phase texture is strongly pinned by aero
gel and is deformed elastically by rotation. (Annealing effects)
Summary for A-phase under rotaion
1) A-phase texture is strongly pinned by aerogel
2) The texture is slightly and elastically deformed by rotation
3) No signal for a soft core vortex even when it is cooled through Tc under 6.28 rad/s
● Singular core vortex exits since the l-texture is strongly pinned
or ● The life time of spin-wave is short in aerogel and NMR spectrum for spin wave is broadened.

This model has a mild temperature dependence, which should be observable in the experiment.

Summary for rotation experiment for superfluid 3He in aerogel
B-phase: The n-texture was deformed by flow and the counter-flow peak appeared.
The hysteresis was appeared when the relative flow velocity exceeded above Vc. The critical velocity did not depend on temperature This was caused by expansion of vortex(G-D instability) from the pinning center and the creeping of vortex started .
The average distance of the pinning centers was about 10 m
A-phase : No vortex signal was observed in aerogel ( this is different from bulk sample)
The l-texture is pinned to aerogel
