9. In the literature there is often confusion about the relation of the sound absorption with the Brillouin linewidth. In particular, Γ is sometimes reported as the full width at half maximum while some other times is the half width at half maximum. We believe that this apparent controversy is related to the choice of the energy attenuation or of the field attenuation, respectively. In this paper we always consider the energy attenuation.
