What is Lev Landau known for in the field of liquid helium?
Discovering Helium-3
Development of theory that accounts for properties of liquid helium-II
Creation of Helium-based Nuclear Reactor
Inventing the Helium Neutrino
Answer
The key to comprehending the unique behaviors of liquid helium-II lies in Lev Landau's groundbreaking theory. His work unveiled the existence of two distinct fluid components in this state: the normal component, which behaves similarly to ordinary liquids, and the superfluid component, which defies conventional understandings with zero viscosity and the ability to flow without friction.
