Transport coefficients, such as viscosity or diffusion coefficient, show significant dependence
on density or temperature near the glass transition. Although several theories have been …

We provide a perspective on polymer glass formation, with an emphasis on models in which
the fluid entropy and collective particle motion dominate the theoretical description and data …

The spherical p-spin model is a fundamental model in statistical mechanics of a disordered
system with a random first-order transition. The dynamics of this model is interesting both for …

Abstract We investigate the Johari–Goldstein (JG) β β-relaxation process in a model metallic
glass-forming (GF) material (Al _ 90 Sm _ 10 Al 90 Sm 10), previously studied extensively by …

We compare glassy dynamics in two liquids that differ in the form of their interaction
potentials. Both systems have the same repulsive interactions but one has also an attractive …

We present the study of the structure–dynamics correlation for systems interacting via
attractive Lennard-Jones (LJ) and its repulsive counterpart, the Weeks–Chandler–Andersen …

We introduce a new measure of the structure of a liquid which is the softness of the mean-
field potential developed by us earlier. We find that this softness is sensitive to small …

Methane, the principal component of natural gas, is an important energy source and raw
material for chemical reactions. It also plays a significant role in planetary physics, being one …

Many structural glasses feature static and dynamic mechanical properties that can depend
strongly on glass formation history. The degree of universality of this history dependence …

The attractive tail of the intermolecular interaction affects very weakly the structural
properties of liquids, while it affects dramatically their dynamical ones. Via the numerical …
