Abstract

Fluctuating hydrodynamics (FH) is one of the theories that describes the dynamics of the fluctuations for fluids at mesoscopic scales. However, it is only valid for Markovian processes. Here we extend this approach for a viscoelastic liquid by using a generalized Langevin equation (GLE). We obyain general analytic expressions for the density fluctuations correlation function, the dynamic structure factor and the light scattering spectrum. In particular, we calculate the intermediate scattering function when the time memory and the noise correlation function are power-laws. We find that the difference in values of this quantity as functions of the viscoelasticity may be ∼62% and might be measurable.
