Norbert Mulders Session
Chair: Pertti Hakonen
(31.3.1959 - 30.3.2015)
Norbert Mulders had many research interests, at the core of which was
understanding phenomena in quantum fluids and solids at temperatures near
absolute zero. He perfected the technique of making silica aerogel, a fibrous solid
that is only four times heavier than air, to study the properties of quantum fluids
in disordered media. His experiments revealed spectacular new phenomena that
raised tremendous interest in the low temperature physics community.
