Connectivity in the potential energy landscape for binary Lennard-Jones systems

VK de Souza, DJ Wales - The Journal of chemical physics, 2009 - pubs.aip.org
Connectivity in the potential energy landscape of a binary Lennard-Jones system can be
characterized at the level of cage-breaking. We calculate the number of cage-breaking …

Pathways for diffusion in the potential energy landscape of the network glass former SiO2

SP Niblett, M Biedermann, DJ Wales… - The Journal of Chemical …, 2017 - pubs.aip.org
We study the dynamical behaviour of a computer model for viscous silica, the archetypal
strong glass former, and compare its diffusion mechanism with earlier studies of a fragile …

Higher Order Structure in the Energy Landscapes of Model Glass Formers

SP Niblett - 2018 - repository.cam.ac.uk
The study of supercooled liquids and glasses remains one of the most divisive and divided
fields in modern physics. Despite a vast amount of effort and research time invested in this …
