C. Andreani et al., QUANTUM AND CLASSICAL BEHAVIOR OF SINGLE-PARTICLE DYNAMICS IN DENSE LIQUID-HE-4, Physical review. B, Condensed matter, 50(17), 1994, pp. 12744-12746
Inelastic-neutron-scattering measurements at high exchanged momentum h
ave been performed in fluid He-4 along a supercritical isochore in the
4.2-50 K temperature range. The data have been analyzed in the plane-
wave impulse approximation to obtain the root-mean-square values of th
e particle momentum. Deviations from classical behavior have been inte
rpreted as arising from the quantum nature of the particle oscillation
s in the framework of a cell model for the fluid.
