AbstractIt is well known that the liquid dynamics slows down on approaching the liquid-gas critical point or the liquid-glass transition. Recently we have found by the sound attenuation measurements that the metal-nonmetal (M-NM) transition also induces slow dynamics. In the M-NM transition range of expanded liquid Hg, we have observed anomalous increase in the sound attenuation due to the structural relaxation process. Assuming a simple Debye-type relaxation, we have estimated that the relaxation time should be of the order of nanoseconds and revealed that the relaxation strength has a broad maximum in the M-NM transition range. Moreover, two types of anomalies have been observed also in the semiconductor-metal (S-M) transition range of liquid Te-Se mixtures. We present the recent experimental results of the sound attenuation measurements and discuss briefly the mechanisms of the slow dynamics in the metal-nonmetal transition range of liquids.

Two waves model where shock wave is combined with rarefaction wave appearing in laser ablation due to metal-nonmetal transition effect is investigated using conservation laws for mass and momentum fluxes for the steady-state regime of the process. This approach permits to obtain the relation between front velocities of the waves which shows that the rarefaction wave can be rather slow compared with the generated shock wave.
