Phys", "categories": [ "cond-mat.stat-mech" ], "abstract": "We explore the equations of state and other properties of various quantum fluids (3He, 4He, their mixtures, and H_2) confined within individual carbon nanotubes. Above a threshold number of particles, N_a, the fluid density near the axis begins to grow above a negligibly small value. The properties of this axial fluid phase are sensitive to the tube size and hence to the transverse compression in the case of a bundle of nanotubes. We consider He at zero temperature and H_2 at low temperatures.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2000-04-13T22:31:34.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "quantum fluids", "axial phase", "axial fluid phase", "individual carbon nanotubes", "transverse compression" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 19, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2000cond.mat..4229G" } } }
