Abstract
The behavior of liquid helium is so unusual that it is not unreasonable to consider it the only representative of a fourth state of matter; helium gas condenses not into the liquid state, but rather into the quantum liquid state. Liquid helium is thus unique in low temperature physics; it is important both in the techniques of producing low temperatures and for its peculiar properties.Keywords
