Abstract: | In a superfluid liquid-helium cavity packed with a fine powder, only the supercomponent is free to move and pressure waves transmitted by the supercomponent are called fourth sound. We have observed that the resonance frequency of the powder-filled chamber may be shifted by introducing vortices. Both static and dynamic measurements were made on the resonance frequency and signal height in order to explore the effect of exceeding the critical velocity of the superfluid in the powder-filled chamber.Supported by the Robert A.
