This course aims at giving an introduction the quantum liquid Helium 4.

After a recap of Thermodynamics and ideal Quantum gases, first, the well

verified experimental phenomena which are shown by superfluid Helium4

are presented. Then the Tisza-Landau two-fluid models and related

generalizations will be discussed. Depending on how much time there will

be, we will also discuss more recent results of Quantum Turbulence (HVBK

equations, Vortex Filament Method) and the degenerated Bose Gas.
