Abstract

The collective motions are studied using a recently created pseudopotential and some elastic constants. This paper involves the calculations of the collective motions like phonon dispersion curves (PDCs) for longitudinal and transverse frequencies ([Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]), longitudinal sound velocity ([Formula: see text]), transverse sound velocity ([Formula: see text]), isothermal bulk modulus (B), modulus of rigidity (G), Young’s modulus (Y), Poisson’s ratio [Formula: see text], Debye temperature ([Formula: see text]) of some monovalent (Na), divalent (Mg) and polyvalent liquid metals (Al, Pb, Bi). This investigation is based upon the theory of pseudopotential of second-order approach via the equations of Hubbard and Beeby (HB). [Formula: see text] The pair correlation function is calculated from the different mean spherical approximation (MSA), one-component plasma (OCP) and optimized random phase approximation (ORPA) structure factors employed in this work. Three different types of local field correction (screening) functions proposed by Hartree (H), Taylor (T) and Nagy (N) are utilized in this paper. The current findings are found to be in qualitative accord with experimental and theoretical data.
