Abstract

Experiments have been performed from magnetic temperatures of 2–20 mK on the effect of minute4He impurities and a magnetic field on the thermal resistance between powdered cerium magnesium nitrate (CMN) and liquid3He. The thermal resistance decreases with decreasingT and increasing small field but is increased dramatically at a givenT by the addition of roughly a monolayer of4He. The resistance is interpreted as resulting from a surface magnetic coupling between CMN and liquid3He.
