Rotons Effecting Mass

Do I understand correctly that ordinary rotons increase mass and extraordinary rotons decrease mass?

Yes.
That's why I don't add croutons to my Caesar salad.

( an excitation in superfluids may increase momentum, but not mass )

Rotons go very well with "p"s, I find. 

There are such things as 'rotons' and 'maxons', so I don't thinkhe's missing the 'P'.
They are theoretical constructs, useful in Bose-Einstein Condensate theory.

Yes, so I discover.
