Abstract

A method for analysis of high-resolution quasielastic neutron scattering (QENS) spectra of water in porous media is proposed and applied to the case of water in hydrated tricalcium and dicalcium silicates. We plot the normalized frequency-dependent susceptibility as a function of a scaling variable [omega]/omega(p), where omega(p) is the peak position of the susceptibility function. QENS data have been scaled into a single master curve and fitted with an empirical formula proposed by Bergman to obtain three independent parameters describing the relaxation dynamics of hydration water in calcium silicates.
