Structural order in glassy water.
We investigate structural order in glassy water by performing classical molecular dynamics simulations using the extended simple point charge (SPC/E) model of water. We perform isochoric cooling simulations across the glass transition temperature at different cooling rates and densities. We quantify structural order by orientational and translational order metrics. Upon cooling the liquid into ...
متن کاملDiffusion in Glassy Systems
The transport properties of glass-forming systems have many features that are not found in normal liquids. Among them is a very strong sensitivity of the relaxation times upon a change in temperature and the presence of so-called dynamical heterogeneities. In this review we discuss these unusual properties and present the results of a simple lattice gas model that helps to understand the origin...
متن کاملFluctuations in glassy systems
We summarize a theoretical framework based on global timereparametrization invariance that explains the origin of dynamic fluctuations in glassy systems. We introduce the main ideas without getting into much technical details. We describe a number of consequences arising from this scenario that can be tested numerically and experimentally, distinguishing those that can also be explained by othe...
متن کاملNumerical methods in Glassy systems
In these lectures I describe some theoretical tools and numerical techniques to investigate glassy systems. The discussion is centered on spin glasses where there has been a large amount of theoretical as well as numerical work during the recent years. After discussing the utility of introducing real replicas in numerical simulations, I analyze topics such as equilibration methods and the analy...
متن کاملective potentials in glassy systems
We review the construction of thèe ective potential' in coupled glassy systems, and discuss the resulting phase diagram in the mean-® eld approximation. The notion ofè ective potential plays a very important role in statistical mechanics and ® eld theory (see for example Zinn-Justin (1996)), and in particular in the study of the phase transitions. The e ective potential is usually de® ned as th...
