Abstract |
A charged particle passing through a bubble chamber produces a track of bubbles. The way in which these bubbles are produced has been a matter of some controversy. We consider the possibility that in helium and hydrogen bubble chambers the production of bubbles is primarily a mechanical process, rather than a thermal process as has often been assumed. The model we propose gives results which are in excellent agreement with experiment. |

Abstract |
The translational oscillations of a sphere in liquid helium have been measured as a way of studying superfluid turbulence. Experiments were carried out in the laminar flow regime for reference purposes, and good agreement found between measured and calculated quantities. In the turbulent region, the dissipation is found to be proportional to the square of the velocity of the sphere, as found previously by other workers. For high vibration amplitudes there is an increase in the hydrodynamic mass. This seems to scale with the superfluid fraction in a way that strongly suggests that the superfluid component plays an important role in the turbulent regime. |

Abstract |
We experimentally study the dynamical response of the superconducting vortex system near the solid-liquid transition by applying forces parallel and perpendicular to a planar random defect array. Our results show that for magnetic fields above a certain critical field Hcr'? 4 T the solid glassy vortex phase in YBa2Cu3O7-? crystals with oriented twin planes does not correspond to the so-called Bose-glass phase. |

Abstract |
We study numerically the effect of disorder in the transport properties of square Josephson junction arrays with a dc current applied in the diagonal direction ([11] direction). We obtain a finite transverse voltage in this case when we consider the presence of disorder in the critical currents of the junctions. We show that this behavior is in good agreement with previous experimental, results in square arrays with a diagonal current drive. |

Abstract |
The heavy fermion compounds CeCu2Si2, CeRh2Si2 and CePd2Si2 have been intensively investigated due to the non-conventional relation between superconductivity and magnetism. We have studied these compounds as constituents of a ternary system, where the Ce(RhxCu1-x)(2)Si-2, Ce(PdyRh1-y)(2)Si-2 and Ce(CuzPd1-z)(2)Si-2 alloys span the sides of a triangle with the respective stoichometric compounds at each vertex. In this article we discuss the evolution of the ground state throughout this ternary system, and we analyse (by means of the electrical resistivity) the influence of doping-induced disorder on the Kondo and magnetic ordering temperatures. |

Abstract |
In the studies of both classical and quantum turbulence, significant attention is devoted to the investigation of the behavior of various submerged resonators. Upon entering the turbulent regime, the oscillators start to experience a significant drag force, which varies non-linearly with velocity. We present an empirical way of modeling such systems, and calculate the expected resonant response of such oscillators near the fundamental frequency as a function of the applied driving force. We apply the model to the crossover from linear to non-linear drag forces and compare with previous models as well as selected experimental data on the transition to turbulence in oscillatory flow of 4He. |

Abstract |
A systematic modification of the entropy trajectory (Sm(T)) is observed at very low temperature in magnetically frustrated systems as a consequence of the constraint (Sm≥0) imposed by the Nernst postulate. The lack of magnetic order allows to explore and compare new thermodynamic properties by tracing the specific heat (Cm) behavior down to the sub-Kelvin range. Some of the most relevant findings are: (i) a common Cm/T|T→0≈7 J/mol K2 ‘plateau’ in at least five Yb-based very-heavy-fermions (VHF) compounds; (ii) quantitative and qualitative differences between VHF and standard non-Fermi-liquids; (iii) entropy bottlenecks governing the change of Sm(T) trajectories in a continuous transition into alternative ground states. A comparative analysis of Sm(T→0) dependencies is performed in compounds suitable for adiabatic demagnetization processes according to their ∂2Sm/∂T2 derivatives. |

Abstract |
A number of specific heat Cm anomalies are reported in Ce- and Yb-lattice compounds around 1 K which cannot be associated to usual phase transitions despite of their robust magnetic moments. Instead of a Cm(T) jump, these anomalies show coincident morphology: (i) a significant tail in Cm/T , with similar power law decay above their maxima ( T>Tm ), (ii) whereas a Cm(T2) dependence is observed below Tm . (iii) The comparison of their respective entropy gain Sm(T) indicates that ≈0.7R ln2 is condensed within the T>Tm tail, in coincidence with an exemplary spin-ice compound. Such amount of entropy arises from a significant increase of the density of low energy excitations, reflected in a divergent Cm(T>Tm)/T dependence. (iv) Many of their lattice structures present conditions for magnetic frustration. The origin of these anomalies can be attributed to an interplay between the divergent density of magnetic excitations at T→0 and the limited amount of degrees of freedom: Sm = R ln2 for a doublet-ground state. Due to this “entropy bottleneck,†the paramagnetic minimum of energy blurs out and the system slides into an alternative minimum through a continuous transition. A relevant observation in these very heavy fermion systems is the possible existence of an upper limit for Cm/TLimT→0 ≈7 J/mol K 2 observed in four Yb- and Pr-based compounds. |

Abstract |
Some non-predicted thermal behavior observed in various Ce-lattice compounds close to their critical points are presented. From a comparison between phase diagrams driven by doping (x) and pressure, a pre-critical region (x* < x < x(cr)) is identified in the former group. Some systematic behaviors, observed in the specific heat (C-m/T) and the entropy gain, are recognized as characteristic features of that region. Different measured temperature dependencies of C-m/T are compared, detecting that the onset of the non-Fermi-liquid behavior occurs much closer to x* than x(cr). In a detailed analysis of the evolution of the thermal dependence within the pre-critical region, a further change in the T dependence is frequently observed before to reach the critical point. A generalized power law function is proposed to compare different systems, which allows to identify a low temperature C-m/T(T) anomaly that only involves about 0.01 x R ln 2 of entropy. |
