W tym czasie Leggett miał znaczący udział w zrozumieniu złożonej nadpłynności 3He, niedługo po tym jak to zjawisko odkryli Robert Richardson, Douglas Osheroff oraz David Lee.
Leggett w bardzo inteligentny sposób połączył teorię Landaua na temat płynów Fermiego, teorię magnetycznego rezonansu jądrowego, oraz teorię nadprzewodnictwa metali, żeby przewidzieć główne właściwości nowych faz w kondensacie.
Leggettowi przyznano nagrodę British Institute of Physics oraz medal imienia Maxwella za wkład w teorię zachowania kondensatów w niskich temperaturach.

Alexei Abrikosov was awarded the Lenin Prize (in 1966), USSR State Prize (in 1982), Fritz London Memorial Prize (in 1972).
The decisive theory explaining how the atoms interact and are ordered in the superfluid state was formulated in the 1970s by Anthony Leggett.
Recent studies show how this order passes into chaos or turbulence, which is one of the unsolved problems of classical physics.
