Abstract

The recent description of the cooling through the glass transition in terms of irreversible structural Eshelby rearrangements with a single average fictive temperature is extended to a distribution of fictive temperatures around the average one. The extension has only little influence on the cooling scans, but turns out to be necessary to understand the heating back to equilibrium.
