Abstract
Solid adsorption isotherms and crystal growth rates for epitaxially adsorbed on graphite have been determined from measurements of fourth sound in Grafoil. The results suggest first-order transitions in each layer below a critical temperature and continuous growth with a decreasing nucleation barrier above the critical temperature.
