In equilibrium and supercooled liquids, polymorphism is manifested by thermodynamic regions defined in the phase diagram, which are predominantly of different short- and medium-range order (local structure). It is found that on the phase…

The slow dynamics of glass-forming liquids is generally ascribed to the cage-jump motion. In the cage-jump picture, a molecule remains in a cage formed by neighboring molecules, and after a sufficiently long time, it jumps to escape from…
