Feynman, the superfluidity and the superconductivity

Abstract

A brief display of the ideas leading to the understanding of superfluidity, and its relation to superconductivity, is attempted, with focus on the role of Richard Feynman. Emphasis is tried to be put on the physical aspects, rather than on the sociological and historical ones, as the latter are extensively covered in the literature already.

Keywords:
superfluidity; superconductivity; Feynman
