Description

The peak in the attenuation for longitudinal ultrasound as a function of temperature around 12 K is interpreted as being caused by a heating phenomenon, this is supported by anisotropy of the effect. The λ-like peak at Tc could also have its origin in this mechanism depending on large Grueneisen parameters. (orig.)
