Abstract

The pulsed ultrasonic method is used for studying polycrystalline cesium under a pressure up to 5 GPa. Elastic parameters and compression ratio of cesium are determined and anomalies in the elastic properties of cesium during phase transitions CsI-CsII-CsIII-CsIV are revealed. It is found that the CsII-CsIII electron-structure transformation is preceded by anomalous compressibility of the fcc phase of cesium and by softening of longitudinal and transverse acoustic modes of the cesium phonon spectrum.
