The macroscopic wave equations of superfluids

  • Published:
Physik der kondensierten Materie

Abstract

The wave equation satisfied by the macroscopic wave function which is characteristic for superfluids is presented in a form in which it can be applied to specific problems. It contains a certain amount of interaction between the superfluid and the normal component.

Zusammenfassung

Die Wellengleichung für die makroskopische Wellenfunktion eines Superfluidums wird in einer Form dargelegt, in welcher sie auf spezielle Probleme angewandt werden kann. Sie schließt eine Wechselwirkung zwischen der superfluiden und der normalen Komponente ein.

Résumé

L'équation d'onde satisfait par la fonction d'onde macroscopique caracteristique d'un superfluide est présentée sous une forme, dans laquelle elle peut être appliquée à des problèmes spécifiques. Elle contient une certaine interaction entre les composantes superfluides et normaux.
