Complex materials are composed of basic units which invariably interact with anharmonic
potentials. It is well known that the dynamics of systems with anharmonic interaction are …

This paper is the fourth in a series devoted to identifying and explaining the properties of
strongly correlating liquids, ie, liquids where virial and potential energy correlate better than …

Recent developments show that many liquids and solids have an approximate “hidden”
scale invariance that implies the existence of lines in the thermodynamic phase diagram, so …

This paper is an attempt to identify the real essence of simplicity of liquids in John Locke's
understanding of the term. Simple liquids are traditionally defined as many-body systems of …

Molecular Dynamics MD simulations of glass-forming liquids play a pivotal role in
uncovering the molecular nature of the liquid vitrification process. In particular, much focus …

Understanding the origin of the dramatic temperature and density dependence of the
relaxation time of glass-forming liquids is a fundamental challenge in glass science. The …

In this third paper of the series, which started with Bailey et al [J. Chem. Phys. 129, 184507
(2008); ibid. 129, 184508 (2008)], we continue the development of the theoretical …

This series of papers is devoted to identifying and explaining the properties of strongly
correlating liquids, ie, liquids with more than 90% correlation between their virial W and …

Supercooled liquids are characterized by relaxation times that increase dramatically by
cooling or compression. From a single assumption follows a scaling law according to which …

In this work, we have tested the efficiency of two scaling approaches aiming at relating shear
viscosity to a single thermodynamic quantity in dense fluids, namely the excess entropy and …
