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 development of inelastic x-ray scattering with millielectron volt energy resolution at the
European Synchrotron Radiation Facility in Grenoble, France, provides a method for …

We have studied how two-and three-dimensional systems made up of particles interacting
with finite range, repulsive potentials jam (ie, develop a yield stress in a disordered state) at …

We consider a system of coupled classical harmonic oscillators with spatially fluctuating
nearest-neighbor force constants on a simple cubic lattice. The model is solved both by …

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 compute analytically and numerically the four-point correlation function that
characterizes nontrivial cooperative dynamics in glassy systems within several models of …

Greenhouse gases and tropospheric sulphate aerosols—the main human influences on
climate—have been shown to have had a detectable effect on surface air temperature,,, the …

The equations of the mode-coupling theory (MCT) for ideal liquid-glass transitions are used
for a discussion of the evolution of the density-fluctuation spectra of glass-forming systems …

High energy resolution inelastic x-ray scattering measurements in the 1–6 nm− 1 momentum
transfer (Q) region in vitreous silica (v− S i O 2) at T= 1050 K show the existence of collective …

Small angle neutron time-of-flight spectroscopy and inelastic x-ray scattering results are
reported on the acoustic vibrations of fused silica. An expression for the dynamical structure …
