THE THICKNESS OF MOVING HELIUM II FILM
Keyword(s):
The thickness of moving liquid helium II films has been measured using the polarized light method developed by Burge and Jackson. The moving film was that on the outside of a cylindrical stainless steel beaker emptying by creep at the rate corresponding to the temperature for the two cases 1.68° K and 1.83° K. Measured at a height of 1 cm above the outer level of the liquid the thicknesses were 5.6% and 4.5% less than those of the stationary film at 1.68° K and 1.83° K respectively. The observations are compared with the theoretical expressions for the difference in thickness of stationary and moving films derived by Kontorovich and by Franchetti.
