Neutron scattering investigations of the boson peak

Inelastic neutron scattering is not only capable of determining a generalized vibrational density of states around the boson peak of a glass, but can also be used to get information on the eigenvectors. The eigenvectors determine the dynamic structure factor, which is Q^2S(Q) (Q wavevector) for long...
