The heat capacity of liquid 4He below 0.6 K is proportional to T3, with the measured value Cv/Nk = (T/4.67 K)3. This behavior suggests that the dominant excitations at low temperature are long-wavelength phonons. The only important difference between phonons in a liquid and phonons in a solid is that a liquid cannot transmit transversely polarized waves-sound waves must be longitudinaL The speed of sound in liquid 4He is 238 mis, and the density is 0.145 g/cm3 . From these numbers, calculate the phonon contribution to the heat capacity of 4He in the low-temperature limit, and compare to the measured value.
