Description

Experimentally determined coherent dynamic scattering functions for liquid bismuth and lead are used to derive the van Hove correlation functions G(r,t) and Gs(r,t). It is demonstrated that it is possible to obtain direct and physically adequate information on the atomic self-motion from a neutron inelastic scattering measurement on a completely coherent scatterer.
