Lambda point thermodynamics of confined liquid helium: negative surface specific heat

We present some theoretical considerations that are relevant to the forthcoming measurements in
 microgravity of the specific heat of confined liquid helium (the flight experiment «СНЕХ»), Primary
 attention is devoted to the suppression near the boundaries, the «negative surface spe...

Description
Summary:We present some theoretical considerations that are relevant to the forthcoming measurements in
 microgravity of the specific heat of confined liquid helium (the flight experiment «СНЕХ»), Primary
 attention is devoted to the suppression near the boundaries, the «negative surface specific heat». Above
 the lambda point, we compute this to lowest order in the c-expansion: below the lambda point our
 discussion is more restricted.
