We present a simple model for biological aging. We studied it through computer simulations and we have found this model to reflect some features of real populations.
We use coherent X-rays to probe the aging dynamics of a metallic glass directly on the atomic level. Contrary to the common assumption of a steady slowing down of the dynamics usually observed in macroscopic studies, we show that the…
We investigate aging in glassy systems based on a simple model, where a point in configuration space performs thermally activated jumps between the minima of a random energy landscape. The model allows us to show explicitly a subaging…
Glassy systems are ubiquitous in nature, and are characterized by slow relaxations to equilibrium without a typical timescale, aging and memory effects. Understanding these is a long-standing problem in physics. We study the aging of the…
We show numerically that a three-dimensional model for structural glass displays aging, rejuvenation and memory effects when submitted to a temperature cycle. These effects indicate that the free energy landscape of structural glasses may…
We study aging in a colloidal suspension consisting of micron-sized particles in a liquid. This system is made glassy by increasing the particle concentration. We observe samples composed of particles of two sizes, with a size ratio of…
We study the aging dynamics in a model for dense simple liquids, in which particles interact through a hard-core repulsion complemented by a short-ranged attractive potential, of the kind found in colloidal suspensions. In this system, at…
We review the most striking experimental results on aging in a variety of disordered systems, which reveal similar features but also important differences. We argue that a generic model that reproduce many of these features is that of {\it…
Molecular dynamics computer simulations of a binary Lennard-Jones glass under shear are presented. The mechanical response of glassy states having different thermal histories is investigated by imposing a wide range of external shear rates,…
The aging behavior is investigated for thin films of atactic polystyrene through measurements of complex electric capacitance. During isothermal aging process the real part of the electric capacitance increases with aging time, while the…
The competing effects of slow structural relaxations (aging) and deformation at constant strain rate on the shear yield stress $\tau^y$ of simple model glasses are examined using molecular simulations. At long times, aging leads to a…
In this paper, we review several important features of the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of spin glasses. Starting with the simplest experiments, we discuss the scaling laws used to describe the isothermal aging observed in spin glasses after…
We study and discuss rejuvenation and memory (numerical) experiments in Ising and Heisenberg three and four dimensional spin glasses. We introduce a quantitative procedure to analyze the results of temperature cycling experiments. We also…
We investigate the aging behavior of lattice-gas models with constrained dynamics in which particle exchange with a reservoir is allowed. Such models provide a particularly simple interpretation of aging phenomena as a slow approach to…
We present a detailed numerical study of dynamical heterogeneities in the aging regime of a simple binary Lennard-Jones glass former. For most waiting times t_w and final times t, both the dynamical susceptibility \chi_4(t,t_w) and the…
The current understanding of aging phenomena is mainly confined to the study of systems with short-ranged interactions. Little is known about the aging of long-ranged systems. Here, the aging in the phase-ordering kinetics of the…
Systems brought out of equilibrium through a rapid quench from a disordered initial state into an ordered phase undergo physical aging in the form of phase-ordering kinetics, with characteristic dynamical scaling. In many systems, notably…
Slow relaxation occurs in many physical and biological systems. `Creep' is an example from everyday life: when stretching a rubber band, for example, the recovery to its equilibrium length is not, as one might think, exponential: the…
The physics of glasses can be studied from many viewpoints, from material scientists interested in the development of new materials to statistical physicists inventing new theoretical tools to deal with disordered systems. In these lectures…
We study the out of equilibrium dynamics of several models exhibiting aging. We attempt at identifying various types of aging systems using a phase space point of view: we introduce a trial classification, based on the overlap between two…
