1. A Helmholtz damper for a combustor of a gas turbine comprising; an enclosure defining a damping volume from which a neck portion extends in a longitudinal direction, said enclosure having an inlet opening and an outlet opening,wherein said damping volume has a flow path (F) from said inlet opening to said outlet opening of said enclosure for cooling and purging air,wherein said neck portion is defined by two annular surfaces having different longitudinal lengths with said outlet opening formed between said annular surfaces, andwherein a seal is arranged at said neck portion adjacent to said shorter annular surface of the outlet opening such that cooling and purging air establishes a cooling effect at an end of said seal. 2. The Helmholtz damper according to claim 1, further comprising a common supply of cooling and purging air for the damper and said seal. 3. The Helmholtz damper according to claim 1, wherein said seal is an integrated part of said neck portion. 4. The Helmholtz damper according to claim 1, wherein said neck portion has an extended length for the accommodation of said seal and/or fastening means. 5. The Helmholtz damper according to claim 1, wherein said neck portion is provided with fastening means to an interface of a combustor chamber. 6. The Helmholtz damper according to claim 1, wherein said seal is arranged on a radial outer side with regard to said enclosure of the damper. 7. The Helmholtz damper according to claim 1, wherein said seal is arranged on a radial inner side with regard to said enclosure of the damper. 8. The Helmholtz damper according to claim 1, wherein said seal is segmented along a sealing surface. 9. The Helmholtz damper according to claim 1, wherein said seal is a spring type seal. 10. The Helmholtz damper according to claim 1, wherein said enclosure is a single volume device. 11. The Helmholtz damper according to claim 1, wherein said enclosure is a segmented volume device. 12. The Helmholtz damper according to claim 11, wherein each segment within said segmented volume device has a different size and establishes a varying damper volume. 13. The Helmholtz damper according to claim 1, wherein the damper is designed as a retrofit part for mounting in existing burners or combustors of gas turbines. 14. The Helmholtz damper according to claim 9, wherein the spring-type seal is a hula-seal or an E-seal.
