Propagation of thermal excitations in a cluster of vortices in superfluid 3He-B
J.J. Hosio, V.B. Eltsov, R. de Graaf, M. Krusius, J. Mäkinen, D. Schmoranzere describe the first measurement on Andreev scattering of thermal excitations from a vortex configuration with known density, spatial extent, and orientations in 3He-B superfluid. The heat flow from a blackbody radiator in equilibrium rotation at constant angular velocity is measured with two quartz tuning fork oscillators. One oscillator creates a controllable density of excitations at 0.2Tc base temperature and the other records the thermal response. The results are compared to numerical calculations of ballistic propagation of thermal quasiparticles through a cluster of rectilinear vortices.
