Critical attenuation of sound in liquid-helium films at 9 GHz

Abstract
We have measured the critical ultrasonic attenuation in superfluid helium films at 9 GHz. The critical exponent 0.65 ± 0.15 of the divergence of the attenuation in liquid helium is interpreted with dynamical scaling arguments. The temperature marking the onset of super-fluidity depends on the film thickness ; this effect is explained in terms of the Ginzburg-Pitaevsky conditions
