The glass transition in hydrogen-bonded glass formers differs from the glass transition in other glass formers. The Eshelby rearrangements of the highly viscous flow are superimposed by strongly asymmetric hydrogen bond rupture processes,…

New inelastic X-ray scattering experiments have been performed on liquid lithium in a wide wavevector range. With respect to the previous measurements, the instrumental resolution, improved up to 1.5 meV, allows to accurately investigate…

In this paper we extend the earlier treatment of out-of-equilibrium mesoscopic fluctuations in glassy systems in several significant ways. First, via extensive simulations, we demonstrate that models of glassy behavior without quenched…

We study thermal fluctuations of a free-standing bilayer graphene subject to vanishing external tension. Within a phenomenological theory, the system is described as a stack of two continuum crystalline membranes, characterized by finite…

The dynamic structure factor of glassy and liquid glycerol has been measured by inelastic X-ray scattering in the exchanged momentum ($Q$) region $Q$=2$\div$23 nm$^{-1}$ and in the temperature range 80$\div$570 K. Beside the propagating…

Previous studies have suggested a conundrum in the relaxation dynamics of polydisperse supercooled liquids. It has been shown that in two dimensions, the relative relaxation times of particles of different sizes become more similar as the…

We consider the nonequilibrium dynamics of a a real scalar field in a degenerate double-well potential. The system is prepared in the lowest free energy state in one of the wells and the dynamics is driven by the coupling of the field to a…

We report dynamical shear-modulus measurements for five glass-forming liquids (pentaphenyl trimethyl trisiloxane, diethyl phthalate, dibutyl phthalate, 1,2-propanediol, and m-touluidine). The shear-mechanical spectra are obtained by the…

We examine the density-density correlation function in a model recently proposed to study the effect of entropy barriers in glassy dynamics. We find that the relaxation proceeds in two steps with a fast beta process followed by alpha…

We report the combined results of molecular dynamics simulations and theoretical calculations concerning various dynamical arrest transitions in a model system representing a dipolar fluid, namely, N (softcore) rigid spheres interacting…

Using molecular dynamics simulations, we study a liquid model which consists of particles interacting via a spherically-symmetric two-scale Jagla ramp potential with both repulsive and attractive ramps. The Jagla potential displays…

By molecular dynamic simulations we study a system of particles interacting through a continuous isotropic pairwise core-softened potential consisting of a repulsive shoulder and an attractive well. The model displays a phase diagram with…

Constitutive equations are proposed for the relaxation of a glassy material in contact with a thermal reservoir. The dynamics of a single state variable, identified as an effective temperature accounts for the emergence of glassy behavior…

We report relaxation dynamics of glycerol-water mixtures as probed by megahertz-to-terahertz dielectric spectroscopy in a frequency range from 50 MHz to 0.5 THz at room temperature. The dielectric relaxation spectra reveal several…

The effect of cyclic loading on relaxation dynamics and mechanical properties of metallic glasses is studied using molecular dynamics simulations. We consider the Kob-Andersen three-dimensional binary mixture rapidly cooled across the glass…

Strong changes in bulk properties, such as modulus and viscosity, are observed near the glass transition temperature, T_{g}, of amorphous materials. For more than a century, intense efforts have been made to define a microscopic origin for…

Transport coefficients and dielectric relaxation in liquids are often treated as distinct manifestations of molecular dynamics. We show that, in polar liquids, orientational dipolar fluctuations generate a substantial contribution to the…

The aim of this paper is to calculate the time dependence of the mean position (and orientation) of a fluid particle when a fluid system at thermodynamic equilibrium is submitted to a mechanical action. The starting point of this novel…

Nearly-logarithmic decay of correlations, which was observed for several supercooled liquids in optical-Kerr-effect experiments [G. Hinze et al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 84, 2437(2000), H. Cang et al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 90, 197401 (2003)], is…

$\beta$ and $\alpha$ relaxation processes are dynamical scaling regimes of glassy systems occurring on two separate time scales which both diverge as the glass state is approached. We study here the crossover scaling from $\beta$- to…
