Abstract

Magnetic measurements have been made on a sample of He3 in a Pomeranchuk cell. Below about 2.7 mK, the NMR line apparently associated with the liquid portion of the sample shifts continuously to higher frequencies during cooling. Below about 2 mK the frequency shift vanishes, and the magnitude of the liquid absorption drops abruptly to approximately ½ its previous value. These measurements are related to the pressure phenomena reported by Osheroff, Richardson, and Lee.

Letters from the Past - A PRL Retrospective

2008 marked PRL’s 50th anniversary. As part of the celebrations a collection of milestone Letters was started. The collection contains Letters that have made long-lived contributions to physics, either by announcing significant discoveries, or by initiating new areas of research.
