Abstract: Dynamical fluctuations of microemulsion and lamellar structures in a ternary amphiphilic system C12E5/water/n-octane are studied by means of neutron spin echo spectrometry. The decay rate of the time correlation of the concentration was analyzed in terms of a theory (M. Nonomura. T. Ohta, J. Chem. Phys. 110, 7516 (1999)), in which both van Hove and hydrodynamic interactions are considered. The result shows that the time correlation function is expressed mostly by a single Exponential determined exclusively by hydrodynamic interactions.
