Abstract
Superfluid $^{4}\mathrm{He}$ filling a thin torus, interrupted by $N$ weak links in series, is found to give an angular momentum contribution which depends parametrically on the steady absolute rotation of the torus. This in principle enables one to determine off-diagonal components of the local metric. Recent claims for a surprisingly high sensitivity of a similar system to gravitational waves and Lense-Thirring fields are unfortunately ill founded.
