Superfluidity of small 4He clusters and free rotation of the embedded molecule — •Slava Grebenev — MPISF 37073 Gottingen Bunsenstrasse 10

The infrared spectrum of single OCS molecule was measured inside large pure hellium-4 droplets and nonsuperfluid pure helium-3 droplets, both consisting of about 10000 atoms. In the helium-4 droplets sharp rotational lines were observed, whereas in helium-3 only a broad peak was found. This difference is interpreted as evidence that the narrow rotational lines, which imply free rotations,are a microscopic manifestation of superfluidity. Upon addition of 60 helium-4 atoms to the pure helium droplets, the same sharp rotational lines were found; it appears that 60 is the minmum number needed for superfluidity. The dependence of the molecular moment of inertia on the number of helium-4 atoms in the helium-3 droplet is reported.
