A full understanding of glasses requires an accurate atomistic picture of the complex activated processes that constitute the low-temperature dynamics of these materials. To this end, we generate over five thousand activated events in…
Ceramic samples, produced by conventional sintering method in ambient air, 6H-SrMnO$_3$(6H-SMO), 15R-BaMnO$_3$(15R-BMO), 4H-Ba$_{0.5}$Sr$_{0.5}$MnO$_3$(4H-BSMO) were studied. In the XRD measurements for SMO the new anomalies of the lattice…
Cu$_{0.5}$Co$_{0.5}$Cl$_{2}$-FeCl$_{3}$ graphite bi-intercalation compound is a three-dimensional short-range spin glass with a spin freezing temperature $T_{SG}$ ($= 3.92 \pm 0.11$ K). The time evolution of the zero-field cooled…
In this work we provide a thorough examination of the nonlinear dielectric properties of a succinonitrile-glutaronitrile mixture, representing one of the rare example of a plastic crystal with fragile glassy dynamics. The detected…
A central question concerning glass-formation has been what governs the kinetic arrest of the quenched liquid - cooling reduces the thermal energy which molecules need to surmount local potential barriers, while the accompanying volume…
Dynamical mechanical analysis (DMA)(f=0.2 - 100 Hz) is used to study the dynamics of confined water in mesoporous Gelsil (2.6 nm and 5 nm pores) and Vycor (10 nm) in the temperature range from T=80 K to 300 K. Confining water into nanopores…
We propose that the super-Arrhenius relaxation rates observed in glassy materials are determined by thermally nucleated rearrangements of increasing numbers of molecules at decreasing temperatures. In our model of this mechanism,…
On approaching the glass transition, the microscopic kinetic unit spends increasing time rattling in the cage of the first neighbours whereas its average escape time, the structural relaxation time $\tau_\alpha$, increases from a few…
The femtosecond transinet optical spectroscopy is employed to study the relaxation dynamics of the equilibrium and hidden metastable charge-density-wave states in single crystals of 1$T$-TaS$_{2-x}$Se$_{x}$ as a function of the Se doping…
We show numeric evidence that, at low enough temperatures, the potential energy density of a glass-forming liquid fluctuates over length scales much larger than the interaction range. We focus on the behavior of translationally invariant…
The long-time thermal relaxation of (TMTTF)$_2$Br, Sr$_{14}$Cu$_{24}$O$_{41}$ and Sr$_2$Ca$_{12}$Cu$_{24}$O$_{41}$ single crystals at temperatures below 1 K and magnetic field up to 10 T is investigated. The data allow us to determine the…
We study the electron-phonon relaxation in the model of a granular metal film, where the grains are formed by regularly arranged potential barriers of arbitrary transparency. The relaxation rate of Debye acoustic phonons is calculated,…
1H spin-lattice relaxation experiments have been performed for water - Bovine Serum Al-bumin (BSA) mixtures including 20% wt and 40% wt of BSA. The experiments have been carried out in a frequency range encompassing three orders of…
The relaxation dynamics of glass-forming systems shows a multitude of features that are absent in normal liquids, such as non-exponential relaxation and a strong temperature-dependence of the relaxation time. Connecting these dynamic…
The dynamics of water in aqueous solutions of three homologous disaccharides, namely trehalose, maltose and sucrose, has been analyzed by means of molecular dynamics simulations in the 0-66 wt % concentration range. The low-frequency…

Sizable glass formers feature numerous unique properties and potential applications, but many questions regarding their glass transition dynamics have not been resolved yet. Here we analyzed structural relaxation times measured as a…
