Investigates the "Snowball" model for charge carriers in superfluid helium, discussing advantages, ion effective mass in normal liquids, and comparison with experimental results. Explores pressure and density distributions around ions in non-polar liquids. Examines the temperature dependence of effective mass using the cloud model.
