Time-scale invariance of relaxation processes of density fluctuation in slow neutron scattering in liquid cesium.

چکیده
The realization of the idea of time-scale invariance for relaxation processes in liquids has been performed by the memory functions formalism. The best agreement with experimental data for the dynamic structure factor S(k,omega) of liquid cesium near melting point in the range of wave vectors (0.4 A(-1) < or = k < or = 2.55 A(-1)) is found with the assumption of concurrence of relaxation scales for memory functions of third and fourth orders. Spatial dispersion of the first four points in the spectrum of the statistical parameter of non-Markovity epsilon(i)(k,omega) at i=1,2,3,4 has allowed us to reveal the non-Markov nature of collective excitations in liquid cesium, connected with long-range memory effect.

Dynamic Structure Factor in Liquid Cesium on The Basis of Time - Scale Invariance of Relaxation Processes ¶
The study of collective effects in simple liquids has been the subject of intense interest over the last few years in Inelastic Neutron Scattering (INS) experiments [1], Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations [2, 3] and different theories [4]. According to these methods, liquid alkali metals have distinct collective excitations in a wide range of wave-vector values and also outside the hydrodynami...
متن کاملCoherent neutron scattering and collective dynamics on mesoscale.
By combining, and modestly extending, a variety of theoretical concepts for the dynamics of liquids in the supercooled regime, we formulate a simple analytic model for the temperature and wavevector dependent collective density fluctuation relaxation time that is measurable using coherent dynamic neutron scattering. Comparison with experiments on the ionic glass-forming liquid Ca-K-NO3 in the l...

We report incoherent quasielastic neutron scattering experiments on the thermotropic liquid crystal 4-n-octyl-4'-cyanobiphenyl. The combination of time-of-flight and backscattering data allows analysis of the intermediate scattering function over about three decades of relaxation times. Translational diffusion and uniaxial molecular rotations are clearly identified as the major relaxation proce...
متن کاملTime-Temperature Superposition of Structural Relaxation in a Viscous Metallic Liquid
Bulk metallic glass-forming Pd40Ni10Cu30P20 has been investigated in its equilibrium liquid by quasielastic neutron scattering. The quasielastic signal exhibits a structural relaxation as known from nonmetallic viscous liquids. Even well above the melting point, the structural relaxation is nonexponential and obeys a universal time-temperature superposition. From the mean relaxation times avera...
متن کاملQuasielastic neutron scattering and relaxation processes in proteins: analytical and simulation-based models.
The present article gives an overview of analytical and simulation approaches to describe the relaxation dynamics of proteins. Particularly emphasised are recent developments of theoretical models, such as fractional Brownian dynamics. The latter connects dynamical events seen on the pico- to nanosecond time scale, accessible to quasielastic neutron scattering, and functional dynamics of protei...
