Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 125301 (2006) [4 pages]Surface Specific Heat of 3He and Andreev Bound StatesReceived 23 January 2006; published 31 March 2006 High resolution measurements of the specific heat of liquid 3He in the presence of a silver surface have been performed at temperatures near the superfluid transition in the pressure range of 1–29 bar. The surface contribution to the heat capacity is identified with Andreev bound states of 3He quasiparticles that have a range of half a coherence length. © 2006 The American Physical Society URL:
