Superfluid hydrodynamics of inhomogeneous states: Systems with broken gauge-translation-symmetry
Abstract
The hydrodynamics of the Fulde-Ferrell (FF) phase of a 3He-4He mixture was theoretically investigated. It is shown that the FF-state has a broken gauge-translation symmetry. Eleven modes are determined for the 11 hydrodynamic variables of the FF-state. The mode spectrum of the FF-state agrees qualitatively with that of the current-carrying state of 4HeII.
