Abstract
Longitudinal ultrasound attenuation of superfluid 3He in 98% aerogel has been measured at 33 bar and 6.22 MHz in the presence of magnetic fields up to 4.44 kG. The A-like to B-like (A-B like) phase transition in aerogel was identified by a rounded jump in attenuation while sweeping the temperature at a fixed magnetic field perpendicular to the direction of sound propagation. The suppression of the B-like phase was monitored as the magnetic field increased until the A-like phase region extended below our lowest attainable temperature (0.2 mK) at the highest field. In addition, the attenuation in the metastable A-like phase that appears when cooling in zero magnetic field was almost identical to the values observed in the A-like phase in high magnetic field.
