Mode-coupling approach to the dynamics of simple liquids

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento D

Summary

A new derivation of the mode-coupling theory of liquid dynamics is presented which is applicable to both quantum and classical systems. A clear distinction between the basic underlying hyphotheses and the more technical approximations has been attempted. Asymptotic corrections to the dynamics of modes due to mode-coupling effects and selfconsistent mode-coupling theories emerge from the original idea as two markedly different branches of application.

Riassunto

Si presenta una nuova derivazione della teoria di accoppiamento di modi della dinamica dei liquidi che è applicabile sia a sistemi quantistici che a sistemi classici. Si è tentata una distinzione chiara tra ipotesi fondamentali di base e le approssimazioni più tecniche. Correzioni asintotiche alla dinamica dei modi dovuta ad effetti di accoppiamento dei modi e teorie di accoppiamento di modi autoconsistenti emergono dall'idea originale come due branche di applicazione marcatamente differenti.

Реюме

Предлагается новый вывод теории; учитывающей связь мод, для динамики жидкостей. Предлагаемая теория применима и к квантовы м и к классическим системам. В нашем подходе отчетливо выражено отличие межды основными гипотезами и техническнми аппроксимациями. Асимптотические поправки к динамике мод, обусловленные эффектами связи мод и самосогласованными теориями учитывающими связь мод, возникают из первоначальной идеи, как две существенно различные ветви приложения.
