## Synopsis Measurements have been made of the attenuation of first sound in mixtures of 4He and 8He for differeht 8He concentrations (11, 3, 1 and 0.5%) and at temperatures between 0.88Β°K and the 2-point. In the neighbourhood of 1.0Β°K the attenuation is diminished greatly by the addition of 8He.
An alternative way of measuring the specific heat of superttuid 4He and dilute 3He-4He mixtures is described. Specific heat data are derived from the measured resonance curves for the temperature amplitude in a second-sound Helmholtz resonator. It is shown that the nature of the losses that govern t
