AB - The position and strength of the boson peak in silica glass vary considerably with temperature T. Such variations cannot be explained solely with changes in the Debye energy. New Brillouin-scattering measurements are presented which allow determining the T dependence of unrelaxed acoustic velocities. Using a velocity based on the bulk modulus, scaling exponents are found which agree with the soft-potential model. The unrelaxed bulk modulus thus appears to be a good measure for the structural evolution of silica with T and to set the energy scale for the soft potentials.
