Abstract

The attenuation of second sound in rotating resonant cavities containing helium II has been measured in the temperature range $10^{- 1} > T_{λ} - T > 6 \times 10^{- 4}$ °K, and values of Hall and Vinen's parameter $B$ have been calculated from these data. The results show that $B$ is only slightly temperature dependent, in qualitative agreement with the predictions of Pellam, but in disagreement with the theories of Hall and Vinen and of Lifshitz and Pitaevskii.
