    Abstract:
    The dynamic behavior of charge-stabilized colloidal particles in suspension was studied by photon correlation spectroscopy with coherent X-rays (XPCS). The short-time diffusion coefficient, D(Q) , was measured for volume concentrations phi < or = 0.18 and compared to the free particle diffusion constant D(0) and the static structure factor S(Q) . The data show that indirect, hydrodynamic interactions are relevant for the system and hydrodynamic functions were derived. The results are in striking contrast to the predictions of the PA (pairwise-additive approximation) model, but show features typical for a hard-sphere system. The observed mobility is however considerably smaller than the one of a respective hard-sphere system. The hydrodynamic functions can be modelled quantitatively if one allows for an increased effective viscosity relative to the hard-sphere case.
