Abstract
We have measured the specific heat of helium near the superfluid transition for films up to 56 thick and for samples confined to a cylindrical geometry of up to 2000 in diameter. The dependence of the shift in the transition temperature on size and the growth of the specific-heat maximum do not yield exponents as expected from simple scaling arguments. The data up to t|1-TTλ|=10-2 scale according to a form suggested by Fisher, but with an exponent 1θ=0.54±0.02.
