The existence of liquid helium above melting curve pressures

Data are presented on the specific heat of helium confined at a high externally applied pressure within the 60 Å pores of vycor glass. The specific heat shows that the helium within the pores remains in the liquid state down to temperatures well below 1K. On the other hand the helium outside the vyc...

Summary:Data are presented on the specific heat of helium confined at a high externally applied pressure within the 60 Å pores of vycor glass. The specific heat shows that the helium within the pores remains in the liquid state down to temperatures well below 1K. On the other hand the helium outside the vycor behaves normally, changing phase from solid to liquid as it warms.
