Abstract
In liquids the decay of density fluctuations shows a slowing down at the structure factor maximum, which is well known as de Gennes narrowing. Molecular dynamics simulations of the liquid metal rubidium and mode coupling theory suggested that this process can be described by a two-step relaxation function. We have probed these predictions with inelastic neutron scattering using the spin-echo technique to measure the dynamics directly in the time domain. The dynamics of liquid rubidium was investigated near the melting point at times beyond the fast contribution. The resulting intermediate-scattering function is in remarkable agreement with predicted values from the mode coupling calculations.
