An acoustic damper includes a low porosity layer section and a housing. The low porosity layer section is formed in a liner of a gas turbine combustor and has an arrangement of elongated generally S-shaped slots formed therein. The housing has a plurality of feed apertures. The housing is coupled to the low porosity layer section thereby defining a cavity such that air outside the housing is configured to flow through the apertures and through the elongated generally S-shaped slots in the low porosity layer section, thereby transforming acoustic energy into thermal energy and aiding in providing an acoustic dampening effect for the gas turbine combustor during operation thereof.

The invention relates to an assembly (1) for a turbomachine comprising: a first rotor module (2) comprising a first blade (20), a second rotor module (3), connected to the first rotor module (2), and comprising a second blade with a length less than the first blade (20), and a damping device (4) extending with at least one component along a turbomachine longitudinal axis (X-X), characterized in that the damping device (4) is annular while extending circumferentially around the turbomachine longitudinal axis (X-X) and in that the damping device (4) comprises a first radial external surface (40) supported with friction against the first module (2) as well as a second radial external surface (42) supported with friction against the second module (3), so as to couple the modules (2, 3) in order to damp their respective vibrational movements during operation.
