EXAFS study on liquid gallium under high pressure and high temperature.
EXAFS (Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure) spectra of liquid gallium near the Ga K-edge have been collected in wide pressure and temperature ranges. Reliable short-range pair distribution functions have been determined using advanced ab-initio calculations (GNXAS) taking into account the medium and long-range structure obtained by previous neutron and x-ray-scattering studies.
