Abstract: | Motion of 57Fe can be observed on a scale of nsec to μsec through nuclear resonant forward scattering of synchrotron radiation. Additional information is obtained by measuring simultaneously incoherent nuclear resonant scattering at nonzero angles. In a glass, one measures the Lamb-Mößbauer factor; in the viscous phase, structural relaxation is observed directly. We apply the method to ferrocene / dibutylphthalate between 140 and 205 K. The mean relaxation times do not follow the observed temperature dependence of other, macroscopic relaxation measurements. We attribute this to a strong wavenumber dependence of the relaxation time. The prospects of nuclear resonant scattering for studying the dynamics of viscous liquids are discussed. |
