Abstract

We report simultaneous heat capacity and torsional oscillator measurement of ³He in aerogel near the superfluid transition. The heat capacity has a peak at the temperature T_c where the torsional oscillator shows the onset of superfluid decoupling. The coincidence of these signatures suggests that ³He in aerogel does undergo a true thermodynamic transition.
