The free-energy density of superfluid /sup 3/He-A at zero temperature contains a term of the form Fapprox.del-arrow-right /sub R//sup 2/lnVertical Bardel-arrow-rightVertical Bar. We discuss this term in the context of our recently developed scaling theory, which was invented to accurately handle such singular behavior.
