The dynamics of a large number of liquids and polymers exhibit scaling properties characteristic of a simple repulsive inverse power law (IPL) potential, most notably the superpositioning of relaxation data as a function of the variable…
A broad variety of liquids conform to density scaling: relaxation times expressed as a function of the ratio of temperature to density, the latter raised to a material constant {\gamma}. For atomic liquids interacting only through simple…
The experimental fact that relaxation times, tau, of supercooled liquids and polymers are uniquely defined by the quantity TV^g, where T is temperature, V specific volume, and g a material constant, leads to a number of interpretations and…
Results from molecular dynamics simulations of two viscous molecular model liquids -- the Lewis-Wahnstrom model of ortho-terphenyl and an asymmetric dumbbell model -- are reported. We demonstrate that the liquids have a ``hidden''…
Supercooled liquids are characterized by relaxation times that increase dramatically by cooling or compression. Many liquids have been shown to obey power-law density scaling, according to which the relaxation time is a function of density…

Dynamical quantities such as the diffusion coefficient and relaxation times for some glass-formers may depend on density and temperature through a specific combination, rather than independently, allowing the representation of data over…
Relaxation times for different temperatures, T, and specific volumes, V, collapse to a master curve versus TV^g, with g a material constant. The isochoric fragility, m_V, is also a material constant, inversely correlated with g. From these…
Strong correlation between equilibrium fluctuations of the potential energy, U, and the virial, W, is a characteristic of a liquid that implies the presence of certain dynamic properties, such as density scaling of the relaxation times and…
A recently proposed expression to describe the temperature and volume dependences of the structural (or alpha) relaxation time is discussed. This equation satisfies the scaling law for the relaxation times, tau = f(TV^g), where T is…
