The investigation of transport properties in normal liquid helium-3 and its topological superfluid phases provides insights into related phenomena in electron fluids, topological materials, and putative topological superconductors. It relies on the measurement of mass, heat, and spin currents, due to system neutrality. Of particular interest is transport in strongly confining channels of height approaching the superfluid coherence length, to enhance the relative contribution of surface…

The anomalous thermal Hall conductivity is shown to depend to the structure of the electron-impurity potential, as well as the winding number ν of the chiral order parameter, which provides quantitative formulas for interpreting heat transport experiments seeking to identify broken T and P symmetries.

The authors find that the confinement stabilizes some of the superfluid phases across a larger portion of the phase diagram with respect to the bulk and potentially provides a testbed for topological superfluidity.
