The elusive connection between dynamics and local structure in supercooled liquids is an important piece of the puzzle in the unsolved problem of the glass transition. The Johari-Goldstein beta relaxation, ubiquitous in glass-forming…
Molecular dynamics simulations were carried out on a Lennard-Jones binary mixture of rigid (fixed bond length) diatomic molecules. The translational and rotational correlation functions, and the corresponding susceptibilities, exhibit two…
Molecular dynamics simulations (mds) were carried out to investigate the reorientational motion of a rigid (fixed bond length), asymmetric diatomic molecule in the liquid and glassy states. In the latter the molecule reorients via…
We investigate the dielectric response in the glass-electret state of two dipolar glass-forming materials. This unusual polar glassy state of matter is produced when a dipolar liquid is supercooled under the influence of a high electric dc…
Nearly all glass-forming liquids feature, along with the structural alpha-relaxation process, a faster secondary process (beta-relaxation), whose nature belongs to the great mysteries of glass physics. However, for some of these liquids, no…
The heterogeneous character of the Johari-Goldstein (JG) relaxation is evidenced by molecular-dynamics simulation of a model polymer system. A double-peaked evolution of dynamic heterogeneity (DH), with maxima located at JG and structural…
Experimental evidence for the Gardner transition, theoretically predicted to arise deep in the glassy state of matter, is scarce. At this transition, the energy landscape sensed by the particles forming the glass is expected to become more…
Temporal relaxation of density fluctuations in supercooled liquids near the glass transition occurs in multiple steps. The short-time $\beta$-relaxation is generally attributed to spatially local processes involving the rattling motion of a…
We investigate the Johari-Goldstein (JG) $\beta$-relaxation process in a model metallic glass-forming (GF) material (Al90Sm10), previously studied extensively by both frequency-dependent mechanical measurements and simulation studies…
Given the vast differences in interaction details, describing the dynamics of structurally disordered materials in a unified theoretical framework presents a fundamental challenge to condensed-matter physics and materials science. Here, we…
We employ an atomic-scale theory within the framework of nonaffine lattice dynamics to uncover the origin of the Johari-Goldstein (JG) $\beta$-relaxation in metallic glasses (MGs). Combining simulation and experimental data with our…
We presented that the relaxation of n coupling molecules in a molecular string exhibits n individual relaxation modes (RMs), each mode being characterized by a definite relaxation time and amplitude according to the string model. The n RMs…
The relaxation dynamics and thermodynamic properties of supercooled and glassy gambogic acid are investigated using both theory and experiment. We measure the temperature dependence of the relaxation times in three polymorphs (alpha-,…
Supercooled liquid and glassy acetyl salicylic acid was studied using dielectric spectroscopy and deuteron relaxometry in a wide temperature range. The supercooled liquid is characterized by major deviations from thermally activated…
Understanding the effect of glassy dynamics on the stability of bio-macromolecules and investigating the underlying relaxation processes governing degradation processes of these macromolecules are of immense importance in the context of…
The dynamics of glass-forming liquids display several outstanding features, such as two-step relaxation and dynamic heterogeneities, which are difficult to predict quantitatively from first principles. In this work, we revisit a simple…
A universal secondary relaxation process, known as the Johari-Goldstein (JG) $\beta$-relaxation process, appears in glass formers. It involves all parts of the molecule and is particularly important in glassy systems because of its very…
We show using molecular dynamics simulations that simple diatomic molecules in the glassy state exhibit only limited participation in the Johari-Goldstein (JG) relaxation process. That is, with sufficient cooling local reorientations are…
We investigate the fast $\beta$- and Johari-Goldstein (JG) $\beta$-relaxation processes, along with the elastic scattering response of glass-forming (GF) liquids and the Boson peak, in a simulated Al-Sm GF material exhibiting a…
We numerically study dynamical properties of the one-component Gaussian Core Model in the supercooled states. We find that nucleation is suppressed as density increases. Concomitantly the system exhibits glassy slow dynamics characterized…
