To describe the size of free volume in liquids for 54 years the bubble model proposed by Ferrel is in common use.The zero point motion of the particle creates a spherical cavity around this particle.The equilibrium radius corresponds to the minimum of energy :

),( UREPsThe surface tension decreases with increasing temperature, hence the size of the bubble should increase (with increasing temperature), and the o-Ps lifetime increases too.

The bubble represents a potential well for Ps (Ps is selftrapped) . EPs depends on R and well depth U

How to calculate the radius?

First, we have to know EPs

Inside the bubble electron density is zero; outside – assumed constant. The molecular forces are very shortranged.Rectangular potential well seems to be a good approximation. The radius of electron-less sphere we denote R.For infinitelyinfinitely deep well the energy is:

(2)

For potential well of finite depthfinite depth U one can calculate the energy, however, no analytical formula for E(R), needed to differentiate it in Equation (1). There are very few data about the real depth of potential well. It can be estimated for solids from Ps time-of-flight experiments. Morinaka et al. give the values in the range (1-3) eV.

In the well of depth U the EPs is smaller than in infinite well of the same radius.

It is interesting, that if we assume, the values like in Tao-Eldrup model (i.e. R+Δ, U=∞) EPs is very close to that for R and U=1 eV. Probably the real U is rather close to 1 eV (see eg. Mogensen’s estimate for liquid benzene, U=0,961 eV)

Let us assume, for convenience, that the depth of potential well is 1 eV and then (instead of real E vs. R dependence), we approximate E vs. R by that for infinitely deep well broadened by Δ.

Difference in λ for alkane and alcohol means, that beside surface tension other factors play the role:- Radiation chemical reactions (with the rate chem = Δλ);- Difference of potential well depth U. If U is of the order of (1-1,5) eV, the shift of λ by 0,015 ns-1 corresponds (very rough estimate) to the reduction of U in alcohol by about 0,3 eV.

CONCLUSIONS

The positronium lifetimes as a function of temperature above the melting point are identical for all alkanes under study;

Best fit of model to the experiment , we get assuming: - infinite potential well of radius R+Δ;- taking into account the surface tension

The difference in the values of decay constants for alcohols and alkanes at the same surface tension is approximately constant. This can be the result of:- radiation chemical reactions;- difference of potential well depth U.
