Abstract

Density functionals that reproduce the helium liquid-gas interface as a function of temperature have been used, within an improved homogeneous nucleation approach, to investigate thermal nucleation and cavitation in both helium isotopes. The results are compared with available experimental data on cavitation in 3He and 4He. Predictions are made for cavitation in 3He at negative pressures and for nucleation in both isotopes.
