Abstract

A previous quantum cell-model development is expanded to treat the solid-superfluid phase transition and the zero-momentum occupation at temperatures other than absolute zero. Application is made to liquid He II, which is studied at various pressures out to temperatures of about a degree absolute. The effective repulsive energy, along the solid–superfluid transition, is determined for pairs of 4He atoms localized in cells of volume equal to the specific volume.
