Abstract
We examine the behaviour of the t-matrix of hard spheres moving in a layer geometry. This is a more realistic model for helium in a thin film than the purely two-dimensional hard disk system. It turns out that for a layer of finite width the t-matrix behaves qualitatively the same as in two dimensions, i.e. it vanishes in the limit of low momenta and low energy. We also describe the crossover from two- to three-dimensional behaviour as the width of the layer goes to infinity. Different boundary conditions are discussed.
