Unlike other peaks in the static structure functions, the FSDP has anomalous dependencies on temperature, pressure and composition.

A brief account for some anomalous characteristics of the FSDP followed by the different controversial interpretations about its structural origin has been reviewed and discussed. Some of the interpretations that seem to be inconsistent with recent experimental results have been ruled out.

The method is applied to the design of a low-pass filter to confirm validity of the proposed DGS.展开更多
