Dynamic relaxation is an intrinsic and universal feature of glasses and enables fluctuation
and dissipation to occur, which induces plentiful behaviour, maintains equilibrium, and …

The field of viscous liquid and glassy solid dynamics is reviewed by a process of posing the
key questions that need to be answered, and then providing the best answers available to …

This book gives a pedagogical introduction to the physics of amorphous solids and related
disordered condensed matter systems. Important concepts from statistical mechanics such …

The boson peak is an excess in the phonon vibrational density of states relative to the
Debye model. It has been observed in a wide range of amorphous materials, from inorganic …

Glasses, are amorphous solids, in the sense that they display elastic behaviour. In
crystalline solids, elasticity is associated with phonons, which are quantized vibrational …

We present the results of a large scale molecular dynamics computer simulation in which we
investigated the static and dynamic properties of a silica melt in the temperature range in …

The development of inelastic x-ray scattering with millielectron volt energy resolution at the
