Neutron inelastic scattering studies of globular compounds

The use of neutron inelastic scattering measurements to determine the nature of the solid-state transitions in globular compounds is proposed and exemplified. Patterns were taken of the high- and low-temperature phases of solid cyclohexane, 2-2-dimethylbutane, and 1-4-diazo-bicyclo-(2.2.2)-octane. T...

Self-diffusion coefficients D 3=4.5×10-5 cm2/sec for cyclohexane and D3=8.6×10-5 cm2/sec for 2-2-dimethylbutane were determined from the patterns of the liquids at 300°K using the "small motions" approximation.
