Molecular-dynamics simulations are presented for two correlation functions formed with the partial density fluctuations of binary hard-sphere mixtures in order to explore the effects of mixing on the evolution of glassy dynamics upon…
We have measured depolarized light scattering in liquid benzene over the whole accessible temperature range and over four decades in frequency. Between 40 and 180 GHz we find a susceptibility peak due to structural relaxation. This peak…
The correlations of the free-energy landscape of mean-field spin glasses at different temperatures are investigated, concentrating on models with a first order freezing transition. Using a ``potential function'' we follow the metastable…
Using density-functional molecular dynamics simulations we analyzed the cooling-rate effects on the physical properties of GeS$_2$ chalcogenide glasses. Liquid samples were cooled linearly in time according to $T(t) = T_0 - \gamma t$ where…
We investigate relaxation in the recently discovered "fracton" models and discover that these models naturally host glassy quantum dynamics in the absence of quenched disorder. We begin with a discussion of "type I" fracton models, in the…
The $\beta$-relaxation associated with the sub-glass transition temperature ($T_{\text{g},\beta}$) is attributed to fast, localised molecular motions which can occur below the primary glass transition temperature ($T_{g\alpha}$). Despite…
This review deals with the kinetic and thermodynamic fragility of bulk metallic glass forming liquids. The experimental methods to determine the kinetic fragility, relaxation behavior and thermodynamic functions of undercooled metallic…
Many mean-field models have been introduced to describe the mechanical behavior of glassy materials. They often rely on averages performed over distributions of elements or states. We here underline that averaging is a more intricate…
We theoretically investigate the temperature dependence of the reversible structural relaxation time and diffusion constant of metallic glasses under pressure. The compression not only changes the glassy dynamics, but also generates a…
The understanding of glassy dynamics above the devitrification temperature of a glass remains poorly understood. Here, we use real-time AFM imaging to build a spatio-temporal map of the relaxation dynamics of a highly stable glass into its…
We consider the relaxation process and the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of natural generalizations to arbitrary dimensions of the well known one dimensional East process. These facilitated models are supposed to catch some of the main…
The anelastic spectra (elastic energy loss and dynamic modulus versus temperature) of La1-xCaxMnO3 have been measured for 0.33< x < 0.5. A peak in the imaginary part of the elastic susceptibility is found slightly below the Curie…
In the vicinity of the glass transition, the characteristic relaxation time (e.g., the alpha-relaxation time in dielectric spectroscopy) of a glass-former exhibits a strongly super-Arrhenius temperature dependence, as compared to the…
We identify a link between the glass transition and percolation of mobile regions in configuration space. We find that many hallmarks of glassy dynamics, for example stretched-exponential response functions and a diverging structural…
Glass formers exhibit, upon an oscillatory excitation, a response function whose imaginary and real parts are known as the loss and storage moduli respectively. The loss modulus typically peaks at a frequency known as the \alpha frequency…
The behaviour of a model glass forming liquid is analyzed for a range of densities, with a focus on the temperature interval where the liquid begins to display non-Arrhenius temperature dependence of relaxation times. Analyzing the dynamics…
The Gilroy-Phillips model of relaxational jumps in asymmetric double-well potentials, developed for the Arrhenius-type secondary relaxations of the glass phase, is extended to a formal description of the breakdown of the shear modulus at…
A model glass with fast and slow processes is studied. The statics is simple and the facilitated slow dynamics is exactly solvable. The main features of a fragile glass take place: Kauzmann transition, Vogel-Fulcher law, Adam-Gibbs relation…
A new relaxation mechanism is shown to arise from overdamped two-level systems above a critical temperature $T^*\approx 5$ K, thus yielding an explanation for experimental observations in dielectric glasses in the temperature range between…
We have established a comprehensive study of the molecular dynamics of the menthol-thymol mixture, the prototype of the new class of type V deep eutectic solvents. Dielectric spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry were combined…
