dc.descriptionIn 1996 Lee, Osheroff and Richardson received the Nobel Prize for their 1971 discovery of superfluid helium 3 -- a discovery which opened the door to the most fascinating system known in condensed matter physics. The superfluid phases of helium 3, originating from pair condensation of helium 3 atoms, turned out to be the ideal test-system for many fundamental concepts of modern physics, such as macroscopic quantum phenomena, (gauge-)symmetries and their spontaneous breakdown, topological defects, etc. Thereby they enriched condensed matter physics enormously and contributed significantly to our understanding of various other physical systems, from heavy fermion and high-T_c superconductors all the way to neutron stars and the early universe. A pedagogical introduction is presented.
