Elastic Constants of Plastic Crystals by Schaefer-Bergmann Scattering: Crystalline Cyclohexane and Deuteromethane

Abstract

dc:description

The Schaefer-Bergmann technique for sound velocity measurement has been adapted for use with solidified liquids and gases. The advantages of this method for measuring elastic constants of plastic crystals are discussed. A method for determining both the elastic constants and the spacial orientation of the crystal from the light scattering data is presented.
