Abstract

We studied numerically the Andreev scattering cross-sections of three-dimensional isolated quantized vortex rings in superfluid <sup>3</sup>He-B at ultralow temperatures. We calculated the dependence of the cross-section on the ring's size and on the angle between the beam of incident thermal quasiparticle excitations and the direction of the ring's motion. We also introduced, and investigated numerically, the cross-section averaged over all possible orientations of the vortex ring; such a cross-section may be particularly relevant for the analysis of experimental data. We also analyzed the r
