Summary
NEAR ABSOLUTE ZERO, LIQUID HELIUM BECOMES < SUPERFLUID >. WE KNOW TODAY THAT SUPERFLUIDITY IS A QUANTIC PROPERTY OF MATTER (CLOSE TO SUPERCONDUCTIVITY), WHICH ALLOWS CERTAIN FLUIDS TO FLOW WITHOUT ANY VISCOSITY. WHAT HAPPENS WHEN SUPERFLUID HELIUM IS HEATED AND RECOVERS NORMALITY ? THE AUTHOR GIVES AN EXPLANATION BASED ON THE VORTEX PHENOMENON, THAT CAN BE FOUND IN NUMEROUS OTHER FIELDS (SUPERCONDUCTIVITY, MAGNETISM AND COSMOLOGY).
