R. Wahrenberg et al., Electronic structure of liquid tungsten studied by time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy, EUROPH LETT, 49(6), 2000, pp. 782-788
The electronic structure of liquid tungsten has been studied by time-resolv
ed photoelectron spectroscopy on laser pulse molten surface layers. The val
ence band spectra reveal distinct changes of the electronic structure acros
s the solid-liquid phase transition which are interpreted by marked changes
of the short-range order on melting which change qualitatively the valence
electron density of states.
