Calcium rubidium nitrate: mode-coupling beta scaling without factorization.

2001 
The fast dynamics of viscous calcium rubidium nitrate is investigated by depolarized light scattering, neutron scattering and dielectric loss. Fast $\beta$ relaxation evolves as in calcium potassium nitrate. The dynamic susceptibilities can be described by the asymptotic scaling law of mode-coupling theory with a shape parameter $\lambda = 0.79$; the temperature dependence of the amplitudes extrapolates to $T_c\simeq 378$ K. However, the frequencies of the minima of the three different spectroscopies never coincide, in conflict with the factorization prediction, indicating that the true asymptotic regime is unreachable.
