Extraction of electrons from quantized vortex lines

Zusammenfassung

If electrons are trapped in vortex lines of rotating He II, they can emerge into the vapor phase without overcoming any detectable energy barrier. This observation of the extraction of electrons from straight vortex lines above 1.1°K agrees very well with the evaporation of electrons from vortex rings studied by Surko and Reif below 0.7°K
