Abstract

The critical current $J_{c}$ of superfluid ${}^{3}{He}$ - $A$ in 0.8-μm-diam channels has been measured by the observation of the pressure difference along the channels versus the mass current. During warming $J_{c}$ was found to decrease by about 30% at $T_{BA} (cyl)$ and by another 30% at $T_{BA}$ ; $T_{BA} (cyl)$ is the reduced $B \to A$ transition temperature in the narrow flow channels, with $\frac{T_{BA} (cyl)}{T_{BA}} = 0.92$ at 27.4 bars. Above $T_{BA}$ a second dissipative mechanism was observed at lower currents. These features are believed to be associated with the ends of the channels.
