On Static and Dynamic Properties of Solitons in Molecular Chains

POSTER

Abstract

The cross section for scattering of x rays by solitons is calculated for the solitons corresponding to the formation of kinks in quasi-one-dimensional systems, e.g. molecular chains. Obtained is the temperature dependence of the soliton density, the shape of the particle density distribution in the soliton, based on the study of the x-ray scattering cross section by solitons, and other static and dynamic properties of the solitons in quasi-one-dimensional systems.
