Quantum-limited mass flow of liquid $^{3}$He (2008)

Lambert, G., Gervais, G., Mullin, W. J.

We consider theoretically the possibility of observing unusual quantum fluid behavior in liquid $^{3}$He and solutions of $^{3}$He in $^{4}$He systems confined to nano-channels. In the case of pure...

Giant viscosity enhancement in a spin-polarized Fermi liquid (2007)

Akimoto, H., Xia, J. S., Candela, D., Mullin, W. J., Adams, E. D., Sullivan, N. S.

The viscosity is measured for a Fermi liquid, a dilute $^3$He-$^4$He mixture, under extremely high magnetic field/temperature conditions ($B \leq 14.8$ T, $T \geq 1.5$ mK). The spin splitting energy...

The evolution of additional (hidden) quantum variables in the interference of Bose-Einstein condensates (2006)

Mullin, W. J., Krotkov, R., Laloë, F.

Additional variables (also often called ``hidden variables'') are sometimes added to standard quantum mechanics in order to remove its indeterminism or ``incompletness,'' and to make the measurement...

Spin Diffusion in Trapped Gases: Anisotropy in Dipole and Quadrupole Modes (2006)

Mullin, W. J., Ragan, R. J.

Recent experiments in a mixture of two hyperfine states of trapped Bose gases show behavior analogous to a spin-1/2 system, including transverse spin waves and other familiar Leggett-Rice-type...

The origin of phase in the interference of Bose-Einstein condensates (2006)

Mullin, W. J., Krotkov, R., Laloë, F.

We consider the interference of two overlapping ideal Bose-Einstein condensates. The usual description of this phenomenon involves the introduction of a so-called condensate wave functions having a...

Landau Damping of Spin Waves in Trapped Boltzmann Gases (2005)

Ragan, R. J., Mullin, W. J., Wiita, E. B.

A semiclassical method is used to study Landau damping of transverse pseudo-spin waves in harmonically trapped ultracold gases in the collisionless Boltzmann limit. In this approach, the time...

Anisotropic Spin Diffusion in Trapped Boltzmann Gases (2004)

Mullin, W. J., Ragan, R. J.

Recent experiments in a mixture of two hyperfine states of trapped Bose gases show behavior analogous to a spin-1/2 system, including transverse spin waves and other familiar Leggett-Rice-type...

Quantum Statistics: Is there an effective fermion repulsion or boson attraction? (2003)

Mullin, W. J., Blaylock, G.

Physicists often claim that there is an effective repulsion between fermions, implied by the Pauli principle, and a corresponding effective attraction between bosons. We examine the origins of such...

Bose-Einstein Condensation, Fluctuations, and Recurrence Relations in Statistical Mechanics (2002)

Mullin, W. J., Fernández, J. P.

We calculate certain features of Bose-Einstein condensation in the ideal gas by using recurrence relations for the partition function. The grand canonical ensemble gives inaccurate results for...

New Evidence for Zero-Temperature Relaxation in a Spin-Polarized Fermi Liquid (2002)

Akimoto, H., Candela, D., Xia, J. S., Mullin, W. J., Adams, E. D., Sullivan, N. S.

Spin-echo experiments are reported for 3He-4He solutions under extremely high B/T conditions, B=14.75 T and T >= 1.73 mK. The 3He concentration x_3 was adjusted close to the value x_c = 3.8% at which...

Validity of the Hohenberg Theorem for a Generalized Bose-Einstein Condensation in Two Dimensions (2000)

Mullin, W. J., Holzmann, M., Laloe, F.

Several authors have considered the possibility of a generalized Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) in which a band of low states is occupied so that the total occupation number is macroscopic, even if...

Instability in a Two-Dimensional Dilute Interacting Bose System (2000)

Mullin, W. J., Holzmann, M., Laloe, F.

The formalism of Ursell operators provides a self-consistent integral equation for the one-particle reduced operator. In three dimensions this technique yields values of the shift in the...

Bose-Einstein Condensation in a Harmonic Potential (1996)

Mullin, W. J.

We examine several features of Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) in an external harmonic potential well. In the thermodynamic limit, there is a phase transition to a spatial Bose-Einstein condensed...
