Description

Neutron diffraction experiments (lambda = 0.692 A) were done with molten Au and molten Cs. The experimental structure factors can be well described by a hard sphere model according to Bletry. Compared to the Ashcroft-Lekner procedure this model yields a better fit of between 100 and 6000C - the high q range of S(q) of Cs. Molten Au (11000C) and molten Cs (1000C) show rather the same packing density whereas in crystalline state Au is fcc and Cs bcc. (author)
