39. Our definition of Γph differs by a factor of T from that used in Ref.
40. For superfluid H4 e it was first believed that B<0, so that the Beliaev process was forbidden. However, experimental data showed that the phonon spectrum was allowing the decay of one phonon into two. Consideration of this process modifies the relaxation times of different dissipative phenomena. These comments are collected in special preface by I. M. Khalatnikov, Introduction to the Theory of Superfluidity (Benjamin, New York, 1989).
