Secondary relaxation in two engineering thermoplastics by neutron scattering and dielectric spectroscopy
We present a preliminary investigation of the dynamics of glassy polycarbonate (PC) and polysulfone (PSF) by means of quasielastic neutron scattering and dielectric spectroscopy. Whereas the consideration of p...

Methyl group dynamics in a glass and its crystalline counterpart by neutron scattering
Methyl group dynamics in the same sample of sodium acetate trihydrate in crystalline and glassy states have been investigated by neutron scattering. Measurements have been carried out in the whole temperature ...

The rotational barrier for methyl group dynamics in anhydrous sodium acetate
Methyl group dynamics in anhydrous sodium acetate have been investigated by neutron scattering. The results in the rotational tunnelling and crossover regimes can be understood in terms of a threefold rotation...
