The universal form of the density of nonphononic, quasilocalized vibrational modes of frequency $\omega$ in structural glasses, ${\cal D}(\omega)$, was predicted theoretically decades ago, but only recently revealed in numerical…
We summarize the salient features of our theory of non-phononic vibrational excitations in glasses [W. Schirmacher et al., Nature Comm. 15, 3107 (2024)]. Next, we provide further evidence of the non-universality of the $\omega^4$ scaling of…
It has been recently shown [E. Lerner, G. D\"uring, and E. Bouchbinder, Phys. Rev. Lett. 117, 035501 (2016)] that the non-phononic vibrational modes of structural glasses at low-frequencies $\omega$ are quasi-localized and follow a…
It has been recently established that the low-frequency spectrum of simple computer glass models is populated by soft, quasilocalized nonphononic vibrational modes whose frequencies $\omega$ follow a gapless, universal distribution ${\cal…
The vibrational density of states of glasses is considerably different from that of crystals. In particular, there exist spatially localized vibrational modes in glasses. The density of states of these non-phononic modes has been observed…
Structural glasses formed by quenching a melt are known to host a population of low-energy quasilocalized (nonphononic) excitations whose frequencies $\omega$ follow a universal $\sim\!\omega^4$ distribution as $\omega\!\to\!0$,…
Glasses feature universally low-frequency excess vibrational modes beyond Debye prediction, which could help rationalize, e.g., the glasses' unusual temperature dependence of thermal properties compared to crystalline solids. The way the…
We numerically study the evolution of the vibrational density of states $D(\omega)$ of zero-temperature glasses when their kinetic stability is varied over an extremely broad range, ranging from poorly annealed glasses obtained by…
Glasses possess more low-frequency vibrational modes than predicted by Debye theory. These excess modes are crucial for the understanding the low temperature thermal and mechanical properties of glasses, which differ from those of…
Structural glasses feature quasilocalized excitations whose frequencies $\omega$ follow a universal density of states ${\cal D}(\omega)\!\sim\!\omega^4$. Yet, the underlying physics behind this universality is not fully understood. Here we…
It has been established that the low frequency quasi-localized modes of amorphous solids at zero temperature exhibit universal density of states, depending on the frequencies as $D(\omega) \sim \omega^4$. It remains an open question whether…
In addition to Goldstone phonons that generically emerge in the low-frequency vibrational spectrum of any solid, crystalline or glassy, structural glasses also feature other low-frequency vibrational modes. The nature and statistical…
Low-frequency vibrational harmonic modes of glasses are frequently used to understand their universal low-temperature properties. One well studied feature is the excess low-frequency density of states over the Debye model prediction. Here…
The theoretical understanding of the low-frequency modes in amorphous solids at finite temperature is still incomplete. The study of the relevant modes is obscured by the dressing of inter-particle forces by collision-induced momentum…
Low-frequency vibrational modes play a central role in determining various basic properties of glasses, yet their statistical and mechanical properties are not fully understood. Using extensive numerical simulations of several model glasses…
Ultra-stable glasses prepared from the physical vapor deposition of organic molecules present a very low density of two-level states, the kind of glass defects that determine their peculiar low temperature thermal properties. Numerical…
It was recently shown that different simple models of glass formers with binary interactions define a universality class in terms of the density of states of their quasi-localized low-frequency modes. Explicitly, once the hybridization with…
It is now well established that glasses feature quasilocalized nonphononic excitations --- coined "soft spots"---, which follow a universal $\omega^4$ density of states in the limit of low frequencies $\omega$. All glass-specific…
It is now established that glasses feature low-frequency, nonphononic excitations, in addition to phonons that follow Debye's vibrational density of state (VDoS). Extensive computer studies demonstrated that these nonphononic, glassy…
A hallmark of structural glasses and other disordered solids is the emergence of excess low-frequency vibrations, on top of the Debye spectrum $D_{\rm Debye}(\omega)$ of phonons ($\omega$ denotes the vibrational frequency), which exist in…
