A physics student is tasked with determining the phonon dispersion relation for a simple cubic crystal lattice using the nearest-neighbor spring interaction model. The student is given the mass of the atoms and the force constant of the springs in the lattice. They need to calculate the frequency of the phonons at different wave vectors and determine the minimum and maximum phonon frequencies in the Brillouin zone.
