Abstract
Deep inelastic neutron scattering (DINS) measurements on a hydrogenous glass, previously studied by conventional neutron spectroscopy and co mputer simulation techniques, reveal, by comparison with the spectra o f the same sample after crystallization, some distinctive features in the neutron Compton profiles (NCS), the origin of which can be traced down to the different effective temperatures (kinetic energies) experi enced by the particle in crystalline and glassy environments.
