Dislocations in a quantum crystal Solid helium: A model and an exception

S Balibar, J Beamish… - Comptes …, 2016 - comptes-rendus.academie-sciences …
Solid helium is paradoxical: it is both a model and an exception. It is a model for crystal
properties mainly because of its extreme purity which makes universal phenomena simpler …

Movement of dislocations dressed with impurities in crystals

F Souris, AD Fefferman, HJ Maris, V Dauvois… - Physical Review B, 2014 - APS
Solid He 4 is a unique example of crystal where dislocations may move at macroscopic
speeds with impurities attached to them. In He 4 crystals, the only impurities are He 3 atoms …
