+We have seen that mean field theory predicts that whatever component of strain transforms like the order parameter will see a $t^{-1}$ softening in the stiffness that ends in a cusp. Ultrasound experiments \textbf{[Elaborate???]} yield the strain stiffness for various components of the strain; this data is shown in Figure \ref{fig:data}.  The $\Btg$ and $\Eg$ stiffnesses don't appear to have any response to the presence of the transition, exhibiting the expected linear stiffening with a low-temperature cutoff \textbf{[What's this called? Citation?]}. The $\Bog$ stiffness has a dramatic response, softening over the course of roughly $100\,\K$. There is a kink in the curve right at the transition. While the low-temperature response is not as dramatic as the theory predicts, mean field theory---which is based on a small-$\eta$ expansion---will not work quantitatively far below the transition where $\eta$ has a large nonzero value and higher powers in the free energy become important. The data in the high-temperature phase can be fit to the theory \eqref{eq:elastic.susceptibility}, with a linear background stiffness $\lambda_\Bog^{(11)}$ and $\tilde r-\tilde r_c=a(T-T_c)$, and the result is shown in Figure \ref{fig:fit}. The data and theory appear consistent.

+Mean field theory neglects the effect of fluctuations on critical behavior, yet also predicts the magnitude of those fluctuations. This allows a mean field theory to undergo an internal consistency check to ensure the predicted fluctuations are indeed negligible. This is typically done by computing the Ginzburg criterion \cite{ginzburg_remarks_1961}, which gives the proximity to the critical point $t=(T-T_c)/T_c$ at which mean field theory is expected to break down by comparing the magnitude of fluctuations in a correlation-length sized box to the magnitude of the field, or since the correlation function is $k_BT\chi(x,x')$,

+  \frac{2k_B}{\pi\Delta c_V\xi_{\perp0}\xi_{\parallel0}^2}\mathcal I(\xi_{\perp0} q_*|t|^{-1/4})\lesssim |t|^{13/4},
+\end{equation}
+where $\xi=\xi_0t^{-\nu}$ defines the bare correlation lengths and $\mathcal I$ is defined by
+\begin{equation}
+  \mathcal I(x)=\frac1\pi\int_{-\infty}^\infty dy\,\frac{\sin\tfrac y2}y\bigg(\frac1{1+(y^2-x^2)^2}-\frac{K_1(\sqrt{1+(y^2-x^2)^2})}{\sqrt{1+(y^2-x^2)^2}}\bigg)

+\begin{equation}
+  t_\G^{9/4}\sim\frac{2k_B}{\pi\Delta c_V\xi_{\parallel0}^2\xi_{\perp0}^5q_*^4}
+\end{equation}
+Experiments give $\Delta c_V\simeq1\times10^5\,\J\,\m^{-3}\,\K^{-1}$ \cite{fisher_specific_1990}, and our fit above gives $\xi_{\perp0}q_*=(D_\perp q_*^4/aT_c)^{1/4}\sim2$. We have reason to believe that at zero pressure, very far from the Lifshitz point, $q_*$ is roughly the inverse lattice spacing \textbf{[Why???]}. Further supposing that $\xi_{\parallel0}\simeq\xi_{\perp0}$, we find $t_\G\sim0.04$, so that an experiment would need to be within $\sim1\,\K$ to detect a deviation from mean field behavior. An ultrasound experiment able to capture data over several decades within this vicinity of $T_c$ may be able to measure a cusp with $|t|^\gamma$ for $\gamma=\text{\textbf{???}}$, the empirical exponent \textbf{[Citation???]}.
