Abstract: The adsorption of superfluid 4He confined into cylindrical pores of alkali metals is illustrated by looking at the case of Na. A density functional formalism is utilized for the theoretical description. The energetics and density profiles are determined as a function of the radius of cylinders and the filling fraction. These results are compared with those provided by a simple model recently proposed.
