Which risk increases when a cryogenic pump cools liquid helium below its lambda point?

💡 Explanation

Superfluidity causes film creep because helium undergoes a phase transition below the lambda point, allowing it to flow without viscosity along surfaces. Therefore, film creep increases rather than is restricted, despite standard assumptions being based only on vapor pressure.
