Abstract

The structural relaxations of a dense, binary mixture of charged hard spheres are studied using the Mode Coupling Theory (MCT). Qualitative differences to non-ionic systems are shown to result from the long-range Coulomb interaction and charge ordering in dense molten salts. The presented non-equilibrium results are determined by the equilibrium structure, which is input using the well studied Mean Spherical Approximation.
