Small Angle Neutron Scattering from Systems of Interacting Particles. Modelling High Density Micellar Fluids
1992
The need for analytical solutions of the scattering equation for complex situations (polydisperse samples, scattering from non centrosymmetrical particles, etc.) has somehow escaped the attention of the workers in the Small Angle Scattering field, although it is clear that, at the level of sophistication today available for the experiments, a more rigorous approach is necessary. For quite a few years our group has been actively engaged in SANS research and has occasionally devoted its attention to develop alternative ways of data analysis based on more rigorous solutions of the scattering equation.
Singlet ground state magnetism: II. magnetic excitons in paramagnetic TbP
1979
The magneticΓ 1 –Γ 4 exciton of the singlet ground state system TbP has been studied by inelastic neutron scattering above the antiferromagnetic ordering temperature. Considerable dispersion and a pronounced splitting was found in the [100] and [110] directions. Both the band width and the splitting increased rapidly as the transition temperature was approached in accordance with the predictions of the RPA-theory. The dispersion is analysed in terms of a phenomenological model using interactions up to the fourth nearest neighbour.
Magnetic field and temperature dependent correlations in the singlet ground state system CsFeBr3
1992
Abstract In the singlet ground state system CsFeBr 3 the temperature and magnetic field dependence of the magnetic dispersion curves have been measured by inelastic neutron scattering. At a field of 4.1 T magnetic Bragg peaks appear at (⅓ ⅓ 1) and (⅔ ⅔ 1). The correlation lengths were derived from the experimental data by integrating the constant Q -scans over the energy transfer. The Q -dependence was fitted to Lorentzians and correlations lengths were extracted for different directions in the lattice. These correlation lengths decrease with increasing temperature and increase with increasing field. Above the phase transition the correlation lengths decrease again.
Magnetic excitations and phase transition of CsFeBr3 in an external magnetic field
1990
In CSFeBr3 the Fe2+ ion with effective spin one has locally a singlet ground state (m=0). The antiferromagnetic interactions between neighbouring Fe-ions are too weak as compared with the anisotropy constant to introduce long range order in the absence of an external field. By inelastic neutron scattering we studied the magnetic excitations in an external magnetic field up to 5 Tesla applied along thec-axis. A linear Zeeman splitting was observed with a Lande factorg=2.4. The field renormalizes the dispersion curves in such a way that the exchange interaction has decreasing influence with increasing field. Theoretical calculations according to the excitonic model of Lindgard describe the ex…
Quantum Coherence Effects in One-Dimensional Chains with Inelastic Scattering
1991
To describe the ballistic transport in a 1 D chain Landauer [1] has calculated the resistance R of a series of elastic scatterers from their transmission coefficient T $$R = \frac{h}{{{e^2}}}\frac{{1 - T}}{T}$$ (1) This relation implies complete quantum coherence between incident and all backscattered waves. Dephasing due to irreversible processes has been introduced into this model by Buttiker [2] who added inelastic scatterers coupled to an external heat bath to the chain. In this way it is possible to describe also certain dissipative aspects of electron transport. However, his approach does not allow to study the gradual transition from coherent to incoherent transport with increasing s…
Inelastic neutron scattering by coupled rotational and translational modes in KCN
1980
The TA [100] phonon branch of the molecular crystal KCN was studied by inelastic neutron scattering in the cubic phase. In addition the distribution of the quasielastic scattered neutrons was investigated. The results are analysed by assuming a coupling of the phonon modes to the rotational degrees of freedom of the CN-dumb-bells which are regarded as a system of interacting quadrupoles. A good description of the present results and also of the existing ultrasonic and Brillouin data is achieved by a simple model which uses a single collective rotational mode of finite excitation energy and line width.
