The study of dynamical properties of crystals near structural phase transitions is still of great importance. Especially the interest on ultralow-frequency dynamics, i.e. the so called “Central-Peak question” was renewed nowadays through some recent work on the observation of Entropy Fluctuations in macroscopic susceptibilities. This so called Heat-Diffusion Central Peak was previously found in scattering experiments, and the corresponding theory was originally formulated for scattering experiments. In this work we present an overview on previous light scattering measurements of Entropy Fluctuations and very recent results concerning the observation of a Heat-Diffusion Central Peak in macroscopic properties at ultralow frequencies, which provide a new insight into the “old” Central Peak problem. The crossover functions from isothermal to adiabatic behaviour are calculated for the macroscopic susceptibilities.

AbstractWe report the observation of strongly anisotropic scattering of laser light at oblique incidence on (100)-oriented porous silicon layers. We performed angle-resolved light scattering measurements and three concentric rings were observed. Modeling porous silicon by means of nanometric columnar air pores and an effective anisotropic uniaxial dielectric constant explains the observed phenomenon, and besides, the observation of the angle aperture of these rings allows a direct measurement of relative birefringence. We finally study the changes of optical anisotropy after different modifications of the structure.

A water-soluble pigment excreted from Serratia marcescens has been purified by precipitation with ammonium sulphate, dialysis, and ultracentrifugation at different pH values. The purified pigment showed a single band in the ultracentrifuge and by electrophoretic analysis at several pH values. An average molecular weight of 5 × 106 was calculated from light-scattering measurements. This pigment is composed of carbohydrate and protein combined with prodigiosin, and several properties of the complex are described.

Light scattering measurements performed on DNA after irradiation in the presence of psoralen clearly show that inter strand cross linkings are present in the macromolecule. In fact after heat denaturation and successive cooling irradiated macromolecule shows a molecular weight practically unchanged while a DNA sample after the same treatment shows a molecular weight half of the intact native DNA. Also the general conformation of irradiated DNA undergoes practically to no modifications after the same heat treatment while native DNA shows itself to have been strongly modified. Moreover, on the basis of flow dichroism determinations, DNA cross-linked by psoralen after heat denaturation showed to be able to restore its ordered double helix structure, during the successive cooling.
