Abstract
Anomalously high damping of capillary waves has been discovered for sy stems with insoluble surface films of N-alkyldimethylphosphine oxides in the transition region from a heterogeneous to a continuous monolaye r. This effect is probably caused by capillary wave scattering at two- dimensional cavities of a gaseous phase in the condensed monolayer pha se (two-dimensional bubbles).
