High signal-to-noise and high-resolution light scattering spectra are measured for nitrous oxide (N$_2$O) gas at an incident wavelength of 403.00 nm, at 90$^circ$ scattering, at room temperature and at gas pressures in the range $0.5-4$ bar. The resulting Rayleigh-Brillouin light scattering spectra are compared to a number of models describing in an approximate manner the collisional dynamics and energy transfer in this gaseous medium of this polyatomic molecular species. The Tenti-S6 model, based on macroscopic gas transport coefficients, reproduces the scattering profiles in the entire pressure range at less than 2% deviation at a similar level as does the alternative kinetic Grads 6-moment model, which is based on the internal collisional relaxation as a decisive parameter. A hydrodynamic model fails to reproduce experimental spectra for the low pressures of 0.5-1 bar, but yields very good agreement ($< 1$%) in the pressure range $2-4$ bar. While these three models have a different physical basis the internal molecular relaxation derived can for all three be described in terms of a bulk viscosity of $eta_b sim (6 pm 2) times 10^{-5}$ Pa$cdot$s. A rough-sphere model, previously shown to be effective to describe light scattering in SF$_6$ gas, is not found to be suitable, likely in view of the non-sphericity and asymmetry of the N-N-O structured linear polyatomic molecule.

The spectral distribution of light scattered by microscopic thermal fluctuations in binary mixture gases was investigated experimentally and theoretically. Measurements of Rayleigh-Brillouin spectral profiles were performed at a wavelength of 532 nm and at room temperature, for mixtures of SF$_6-$He, SF$_6-$D$_2$ and SF$_6-$H$_2$. In these measurements, the pressure of the gases with heavy molecular mass (SF$_6$) is set at 1 bar, while the pressure of the lighter collision partner was varied. In view of the large polarizability of SF$_6$ and the very small polarizabilities of He, H$_2$ and D$_2$, under the chosen pressure conditions these low mass species act as spectators and do not contribute to the light scattering spectrum, while they influence the motion and relaxation of the heavy SF$_6$ molecules. A generalized hydrodynamic model was developed that should be applicable for the particular case of molecules with heavy and light disparate masses, as is the case for the heavy SF$_6$ molecule, and the lighter collision partners. Based on the kinetic theory of gases, our model replaces the classical Navier-Stokes-Fourier relations with constitutive equations having an exponential memory kernel. The energy exchange between translational and internal modes of motion is included and quantified with a single parameter $z$ that characterizes the ratio between the mean elastic and inelastic molecular collision frequencies. The model is compared with the experimental Rayleigh-Brillouin scattering data, where the value of the parameter $z$ is determined in a least-squares procedure. Where very good agreement is found between experiment and the generalized hydrodynamic model, the computations in the framework of classical hydrodynamics strongly deviate. Only in the hydrodynamic regime both models are shown to converge.
Room-temperature optical constants of crystalline Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+delta}$ were determined using data extracted from Brillouin light scattering spectra. Optical extinction coefficient-to-refractive index ratios at a wavelength of 532 nm were obtained from bulk phonon peak linewidth and frequency shift measurements and range from $0.19 leq 2kappa/n leq 0.29$ for directions close to the crystallographic $c$-axis. These ratios, and optical extinction coefficients, absorption coefficients, and imaginary parts of the dielectric function determined from these ratios and known refractive index, are in general agreement with values found in optical reflectance studies, but are 5-7 times larger than those extracted from optical interference measurements.
Spontaneous Rayleigh-Brillouin scattering (RBS) experiments have been performed in air for pressures in the range 0.25 - 3 bar and temperatures in the range 273 - 333 K. The functional behaviour of the RB-spectral profile as a function of experimenta l parameters, such as the incident wavelength, scattering angle, pressure and temperature is analyzed, as well as the dependence on thermodynamic properties of the gas, as the shear viscosity, the thermal conductivity, the internal heat capacity and the bulk viscosity. Measurements are performed in a scattering geometry detecting at a scattering angle $theta=55.7^circ$ and an incident wavelength of $lambda_i=532.22$ nm, at which the Brillouin features become more pronounced than in a right angles geometry and for ultraviolet light. For pressure conditions of 1 - 3 bar the RB-spectra, measured at high signal-to-noise ratio, are compared to Tenti-S6 model calculations and values for the bulk viscosity of air are extracted. Values of $eta_b$ are found to exhibit a linear dependence on temperature over the measurement interval in the range $1.0 - 2.0 times 10^{-5}$ Pa$cdot$s. A temperature dependent value is deduced from a collection of experiments to yield: $eta_{rm b} = (0.86 times 10^{-5}) + 1.29 times 10^{-7} cdot (T - 250)$. These results are implemented in model calculations that were verified for the low pressure conditions ($p < 1$ bar) relevant for the Earths atmosphere. As a result we demonstrate that the RB-scattering spectral profiles for air under sub-atmospheric conditions can be generated via the Tenti-S6 model, for given gas-phase and detection conditions ($p$, $T$, $lambda_i$, and $theta$), and for values for the gas transport coefficients.

Rayleigh-Brillouin scattering spectra of CO$_2$ were measured at pressures ranging from 0.5 to 4~bar, and temperatures from 257 to 355~K using green laser light (wavelength 532~nm, scattering angle of 55.7$^circ$). These spectra were compared to two lineshape models, which take the bulk viscosity as a parameter. One model applies to the kinetic regime, i.e. low pressures, while the second model uses the continuum, hydrodynamic approach and takes the rotational relaxation time as a parameter, which translates into the bulk viscosity. We do not find a significant dependence of the bulk viscosity with pressure or temperature. At pressures where both models apply we find a consistent value of the ratio of bulk viscosity over shear viscosity $eta_b/eta_s = 0.41 pm 0.10$. This value is four orders of magnitude smaller than the common value that is based on the damping of ultrasound, and signifies that in light scattering only relaxation of rotational modes matters, while vibrational modes remain frozen.
The spectral distribution of parametrically excited dipole-exchange magnons in an in-plane magnetized epitaxial film of yttrium-iron garnet was studied by means of frequency- and wavevector-resolved Brillouin light scattering spectroscopy. The experi ment was performed in a parallel pumping geometry where an exciting microwave magnetic field was parallel to the magnetizing field. It was found that for both dipolar and exchange spectral areas parallel pumping excites the lowest volume magnon modes propagating in the film plane perpendicularly to the magnetization direction. In order to interpret the experimental observations, we used a microscopic Heisenberg model that includes exchange as well as dipole-dipole interactions to calculate the magnon spectrum and construct the eigenstates. As proven in our calculations, the observed magnons are characterized by having the highest possible ellipticity of precession which suggests the lowest threshold of parametric generation. Applying different pumping powers we observe modifications in the magnon spectrum that are described theoretically by a softening of the spin stiffness.
