By means of extensive equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations we have investigated, the behavior of the interfacial tension $\gamma$ of two immiscible symmetrical Lennard-Jones fluids. This quantity is studied as function of reduced…
The study of spin-glass dynamics, long considered the paradigmatic complex system, has reached important milestones. The availability of single crystals has allowed the experimental measurement of spin-glass coherence lengths of almost…
Kinetics of separation between the low and high density phases in a single component Lennard-Jones model has been studied via molecular dynamics simulations, at a very low temperature, in the space dimension $d=2$. For densities close to…
We introduce models of heterogeneous systems with finite connectivity defined on random graphs to capture finite-coordination effects on the low-temperature behavior of finite dimensional systems. Our models use a description in terms of…
Experimental studies of the glassy slowdown in molecular liquids indicate that the high-temperature activation energy $E_{\infty}$ of glass-forming liquids is directly related to their glass transition temperature $T_{\text{g}}$. To further…
It is a persistent problem in condensed matter physics that glasses exhibit vibrational and thermal properties that are markedly different from those of crystals. While recent works have advanced our understanding of vibrational excitations…
We present a comprehensive theoretical study of finite size effects in the relaxation dynamics of glass-forming liquids. Our analysis is motivated by recent theoretical progress regarding the understanding of relevant correlation length…
Simulations are used to determine the effect of inertia on athermal shear of a two-dimensional binary Lennard-Jones glass. In the quasistatic limit, shear occurs through a series of rapid avalanches. The distribution of avalanches is…
In the current work we revisit the pair-potential recently proposed by Wang et al. (Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. 10624, 22, 2020) as a well defined finite-range alternative to the widely used Lennard-Jones interaction model. The advantage of…
A non--equilibrium occupation distribution relaxes towards the Fermi--Dirac distribution due to electron--electron scattering even in finite Fermi systems. The dynamic evolution of this thermalization process assumed to result from an…
While the vibrational thermodynamics of materials with small anharmonicity at low temperatures has been understood well based on the harmonic phonons approximation; at high temperatures, this understanding must accommodate how phonons…
We point out that the repeatedly reported glass-like properties of crystalline materials are not necessarily associated with localized (or quasilocalized) excitations. In real crystals, optical and short-wavelength acoustical vibrations…
Identifying the conditions under which glass formation occurs is crucial for a fundamental understanding of the glass transition mechanism. Pure liquids devoid of any frustration avoid glass transition and undergo crystallization. In this…
We analyze the properties of a Lennard-Jones system at the level of the potential energy landscape. After an exhaustive investigation of the topological features of the landscape of the systems, obtained studying small size sample, we…
We study, using molecular dynamics techniques, how boundary conditions affect the process of fragmentation of finite, highly excited, Lennard-Jones systems. We analyze the behavior of the caloric curves (CC), the associated thermal response…
We implement molecular dynamics simulations in canonical ensemble to study the effect of confinement on a $2d$ crystal of point particles interacting with an inverse power law potential proportional to $r^{-12}$ in a narrow channel. This…
What lattice Lennard-Jones (LJ) solid favors, the lattice identification of simulated system and the microstructures of liquid and non-crystalline solid are three important questions in condensed physics and material science and are…
Low-frequency nonphononic modes and plastic rearrangements in glasses are spatially quasilocalized, i.e. feature a disorder-induced short-range core and known long-range decaying elastic fields. Extracting the unknown short-range core…
Framing the glass formation within standard statistical mechanics is an outstanding problem of condensed matter theory. To provide new insight, we investigate the structural properties of the Lennard-Jones fluid in the very-low temperature…
We use molecular dynamics simulation to study the relationship between structure and dynamics in supercooled binary Lennard--Jones nanoparticles over a range of particle sizes. The glass transition temperature of the nanoparticles is found…
