We use a recently derived diagrammatic formulation of the dynamics of interacting Brownian particles [G. Szamel, J. Chem. Phys. 127, 084515 (2007)] to study a four-point dynamic density correlation function. We re-sum a class of diagrams…
We analyze the glassy dynamics of a binary mixtures of hard disks in two dimensions. Predictions of the Mode-Coupling theory(MCT) are tested with extensive Brownian dynamics simulations. Measuring the collective particle density correlation…
We present numerical calculations of a four-point dynamic susceptibility, chi_4(t), for the Kob-Andersen Lennard-Jones mixture as a function of temperature T and density rho. Over a relevant range of T and rho, the full t-dependence of…
Dynamical four-point susceptibilities measure the extent of spatial correlations in the dynamics of glass forming systems. We show how these susceptibilities depend on the length scales that necessarily form part of their definition. The…
Liquids near the glass transition exhibit dynamical heterogeneity, i.e. local relaxation rates fluctuate strongly over space and time. Here we introduce a simple continuum model that allows for quantitative predictions for the correlators…
We compute analytically and numerically the four-point correlation function that characterizes non-trivial cooperative dynamics in glassy systems within several models of glasses: elasto-plastic deformations, mode-coupling theory (MCT),…
We calculated a four-point correlation function G_4(k,r;t) and the corresponding structure factor S_4(k,q;t) for a model glass-forming binary mixture. These functions measure the spatial correlations of the relaxation of different…
We use a standard Monte-Carlo algorithm to study the slow dynamics of a binary Lennard-Jones glass-forming mixture at low temperature. We find that Monte-Carlo is by far the most efficient way to simulate a stochastic dynamics since…
We investigate the dynamic heterogeneities of glassy particle systems in the theoretical schemes of bond breakage and four-point correlation functions. In the bond-breakage scheme, we introduce the structure factor S_b(q,t) and the…
Using a molecular dynamics computer simulation we determine the temperature dependence of the partial structure factors for a binary Lennard-Jones system. These structure factors are used as input data to solve numerically the wave-vector…
Clusters of fast and slow correlated particles, identified as dynamical heterogeneities (DHs), con-stitute a central aspect of glassy dynamics. A key ingredient of the glass transition scenario is asignificant increase of the cluster size…
Koperwas {\it et al.} showed in a recent paper, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 111}, 125701 (2013), that the dynamic susceptibility $\chi_4$ as estimated by dielectric measurements for certain glass-forming liquids decreases substantially with…
We solved the mode-coupling equations for the Kob-Andersen binary mixture using the structure factors calculated from Brownian dynamics simulations of the same system. We found, as was previously observed, that the mode-coupling…
We investigate the growth of dynamic heterogeneity in a glassy hard-sphere mixture for volume fractions up to and including the mode-coupling transition. We use an 80 000 particle system to test a new procedure to evaluate a dynamic…
The physical behavior of glass-forming liquids presents complex features of both dynamic and thermodynamic nature. Some studies indicate the presence of thermodynamic anomalies and of crossovers in the dynamic properties, but their origin…
Recently, it was argued that a three-point susceptibility equal to the density derivative of the intermediate scattering function, $\chi_n(k;t) = d F(k;t)/d n$, enters into an expression for the divergent part of an integrated four-point…
We discuss recent advances in developing a mode-coupling theory of the glass transition (MCT) of two-dimensional systems of active Brownian particles (ABP). We specifically discuss the case of a single ABP tracer in a glass-forming passive…
We examine the relaxation of the Kob-Andersen Lennard-Jones binary mixture using Brownian dynamics computer simulations. We find that in accordance with mode-coupling theory the self-diffusion coefficient and the relaxation time show…
We study the influence of the softness of the interparticle interactions on the fragility of a glass former, by considering three model binary mixture glass formers. The interaction potential between particles is a modified Lennard-Jones…
After a brief introduction to the dynamics of supercooled liquids, we discuss some of the advantages and drawbacks of computer simulations of such systems. Subsequently we present the results of computer simulations in which the dynamics of…
