Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have studied the relation between the thermodynamics and liquid-liquid phase transition in liquid systems by the sound velocity measurements with the combination of inelastic x-ray scattering and ultrasonic methods. In water-methanol mixture system, the ultrasonic sound velocity (v_US) exhibits maximum in the concentration dependence. On the other hand, IXS sound velocity (v_IXS) show simple linear variation in both concentration and temperature dependences. The "fluctuations" or relaxation intensity of the system, defined by the parameter v_IXS/v_US, becomes larger in the lower-methanol and lower-temperature region, which indicates that these fluctuations arises from the liquid-liquid phase transition of pure water located in the supercooled region.
