H. Hayashi et al., INELASTIC X-RAY-SCATTERING IN MOLECULAR LIQUIDS AND ELECTRON CORRELATION-EFFECTS, Journal of synchrotron radiation, 5, 1998, pp. 1052-1054
Inelastic X-ray scattering spectra of liquid water and cyclohexane hav
e been measured with 2 eV resolution for a momentum transfer range bet
ween 0.69 and 2.77 au at BL16A of the Photon Factory, KEK, Tsukuba. Ob
served spectra are transformed to the dynamic structure factor which i
s normalized by using the Bethe sum rule, and the static structure fac
tor is obtained. From a comparison with extended CI calculations by th
e use of various basis sets, correlation effects are proved to be of v
ital importance in inelastic X-ray scattering.
