Abstract

Hyper-Rayleigh light scattering measurements of molecular motion in several liquids find that the orientations of the molecules are correlated over macroscopic distances. Such collective molecular rotation occurs in addition to the usually observed, highly localized, diffusive mode of molecular reorientation. Long range correlation of molecular orientation may have significant unrecognized effects on the structure and properties of liquids.
