Abstract
Brillouin scattering measurements were performed on liquid methane using diamond anvil cell along five isotherms and at the pressures up to solidification points. Sound velocity, refractive index, and adiabatic bulk modulus of liquid methane as function of pressure were determined with the measurements from the platelet and backscattering geometries. The maximum pressure and temperature reached up to 5.12 GPa and 539 K. The sound velocity, refractive index, and adiabatic bulk modulus increased with pressure along each isotherm. The equation of state of liquid methane was determined from the present Brillouin results.
