Search for fourth sound propagation in supersolid ⁴He

A systematic study was carried out to search for fourth sound propagation solid ⁴He samples below 500 mK down to 40 mK between 25 and 56 bar using the techniques of heat pulse generator and titanium superconducting transition edge bolometer. If solid ⁴He is endowed with superfluidity below 200 mK...
