Damping of zero sound in liquid3He

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik B Condensed Matter

Abstract

The dynamic structure factor in liquid3He is calculated within the framework of Dissipative Linear Response (DLR) equations. The effective interaction is represented by the Landau parameters up tol=2 and the Random Phase Approximation (RPA)-scattering amplitudes are evaluated in thes−p−d approximation. The dissipative linear response operator is calculated on the basis of RPA solutions of undamped zero sound using integral equation techniques.

The dynamical structure factor has a strong resonance structure whose width agrees with measurements of the attenuation coefficient for small momentum transfers. At larger values of momentum transfer, where the dynamical structure factor has been directly measured, the Landau parameters do not give more than a qualitative agreement with the data.
