Observations on superfluid /sup 3/He-A in small cylinders: Evidence for a textural transition

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. Lett.; (United States)
We report transverse and longitudinal NMR experiments on superfluid /sup 3/He-A confined within 2..mu..m diam tubes at temperature down to 1 mK. The behavior of the transverse resonance line provide evidence for slow transition between two textures in the tubes; the shifts are smaller than in bulk for both textures. A search for longitudinal resonance was unsuccessful, and no transition to the B phase was observed.
