Is Ortho-Terphenyl a Rigid Glass Former?

J Kölbel, MT Ruggiero, S Keren… - The Journal of …, 2024 - ACS Publications
Ortho-terphenyl (OTP) has long been used as a model system to study the glass transition
due to its apparent simplicity and a widespread assumption that it is a rigid molecule. Here …

[HTML][HTML] On the ergodicity of supercooled molecular glass-forming liquids at the dynamical arrest: the o-terphenyl case

F Mallamace, C Corsaro, N Leone, V Villari, N Micali… - Scientific Reports, 2014 - nature.com
The dynamics of supercooled ortho-terphenyl has been studied using photon-correlation
spectroscopy (PCS) in the depolarized scattering geometry. The obtained relaxation curves …

From liquid structure to configurational entropy: Introducing structural covariance

P Ronceray, P Harrowell - Journal of Statistical Mechanics …, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
We connect the configurational entropy of a liquid to the geometrical properties of its local
energy landscape, using a high-temperature expansion. It is proposed that correlations …

Kovacs effect and the relation between glasses and supercooled liquids

F Aliotta, RC Ponterio, F Saija, PV Giaquinta - … to Norman H. March on the …, 2018 - Springer
In this note we revisit the Kovacs effect, concerning the way in which the volume of a glass-
forming liquid, which has been driven out of equilibrium, changes with time while the system …

The free energy of a liquid when viewed as a population of overlapping clusters

P Ronceray, P Harrowell - Molecular Simulation, 2016 - Taylor & Francis
The expression of the free energy of a liquid in terms of an explicit decomposition of the
particle configurations into local coordination clusters is examined. We argue that the major …

The dynamical fragile-to-strong crossover in attractive colloidal systems

F Mallamace, C Corsaro, C Vasi, S Vasi… - Journal of Non …, 2015 - Elsevier
The dynamics of a hierarchical colloid solution, dendrimer in methanol, has been studied
using photon-correlation spectroscopy (PCS). The obtained relaxation curves are analyzed …

The fragile to strong dynamical crossover in supercooled liquids. The o-terphenyl case and its ergodicity at the dynamical arrest

F Mallamace, C Corsaro, N Micali, V Villari… - AIP Conference …, 2013 - pubs.aip.org
We report a study of the dynamic crossover in two different glass-forming materials: an
adhesive hard-sphere (AHS) colloidal system and the molecular liquid o-terphenyl. Systems …
