Common compression factor and bulk modulus quiescence points of liquid cesium

In this paper, a recently developed analytical equation of state (EOS) is used to investigate the bulk modulus of compressed liquid cesium and to locate common compression factor and the bulk modulus quiescence point(s). This EOS is applied quick well to Na and Rb far from Tc. Bulk modulus of liquid cesium have two quiescence points, a sharp one in the range 1100–1500 K and a diffused one in the range 1600–1900 K. Therefore, two types of liquid cesium metal may be identified with characteristic structure and interaction potential energy. It is a constant independent of temperature, however, some residual change is seen due to the change in the values of integral of pair correlation function as temperature is increased. Furthermore, it is related to the shape of the unit cell and the atomic size at equilibrium. Observation of distinct liquid in the metal–nonmetal transition range is compared with NMR studies and molecular dynamic results.
