Abstract

Superfluid 3He in the angular velocity of 0.01Ωc2ΩΩc2 is studied theoretically, where Ωc2 is the upper critical field of order (1T/Tc)×107rad/s. Five different phases have been found in the pressure- Ω plane. Especially, it is shown that the A-phase-core vortex experimentally found in the B phase originates from Schopohl's polar state at Ωc2 via an A-phase mixed-twist lattice with polar cores and the normal-core lattice of Ohmi, Tsuneto, and Fujita [Prog. Theor. Phys. 70, 647 (1983)].
