High Intensity Total scattering spectrometer (HIT) was constructed under Professor Watanabe’s leadership. Structures of various kinds of amorphous materials, glasses and liquids were studied and the structure factor S(Q) up to the high scattering vector of Q~30 Å-1 gave us precise information on the short-range atomic configuration in the real space. Moreover, the use of isotopes provides us another advantage for the structural investigation. Bhatia-Thornton and Faber-Ziman type partial structures for Ni-60at%Ti amorphous alloy could be derived precisely using 60Ni-isotope.
