Non-Fermi-liquid (NFL) behavior of the specific heat C(T) of two-dimensional (2D) liquid 3 He , first uncovered in measurements almost 20 years ago, is explained in terms of intrinsic properties of this system that emerge when its density rises and the liquid becomes strongly correlated. The occurrence of a T-independent β term in C(T) is attributed to satisfaction of the conditions for Dulong–Petit behavior by the boson part of the free energy. This unexpected classicality stems from softening of the transverse zero-sound mode (TZSM) in the density region where the anomaly in C(T), associated with a quantum critical point (QCP), is observed.
