| Abstract: | A comparison of the basic properties of the superfluid phases of liquid 3He with those of electrons in Type I superconductors and of bosons in liquid 4He reveals their similarity and differences. This is followed by some examples of the liquid crystal and magnetic properties of superfluid 3He and an account of the relationships between the tensor order parameter and the collective modes of the superfluid phases. The article ends with some comments on our present understanding of quantum liquids. |
