  • Published:
Journal of Low Temperature Physics Aims and scope Submit manuscript

This appendix contains several comments relevant to the lectures of Roger Bowley.1 We begin with some introductory remarks on third sound and proceed to utilize third sound to study the stability of flow in helium films. We conclude with a remark about the effective thermal conductivity of a helium film.
