Abstract
A simple model for α- and β-rotational relaxation (detected through the behavior of the lth order spherical harmonics) in supercooled liquids predicts that the relaxation frequency of the latter is proportional to l(l+1) and that of the former (confirmed or at least suggested experimentally) is independent of l. This has been taken to mean that the β relaxation takes place by means of small angular jumps (diffusion) and the α relaxation by means of long angular jumps. However, because the amplitude of the α relaxation decreases rapidly with increasing l, despite the fact that the α-relaxation frequency is independent of l, the motion may be diffusional in accord with the observations of Spiess et al. This is discussed in terms of a simple model.
