Abstract

The superfluidity of water at 20–80°C in capillaries formed by quartz activated by grinding arises from quartz dissolution and from the interaction of the solution with the activated capillary surface. Superfluidity can be caused either by a decrease in the solution viscosity or by the sliding of the liquid along the capillary surface. Both mechanisms may be a consequence of the spatial structuring of the solution in the field of long-range surface forces.
