Abstract
We present results of torsional oscillator experiments that are in progress or completed at Cornell. Taken together, these experiments suggest that the properties of superfluid3He in aerogel are substantially different from those exhibited by bulk superfluid3He. Featured are the differences between bulk and superfluid3He in aerogel with temperature and pressure. Comparisons to proposed models of3He in aerogel are also made.
