Excitation chains at the glass transition.
The excitation-chain theory of the glass transition, proposed in an earlier publication, predicts diverging, super-Arrhenius relaxation times and, via a similarly diverging length scale, suggests a way of understanding the relations between dynamic and thermodynamic properties of glass-forming liquids. I argue here that critically large excitation chains play a role roughly analogous to that pl...
متن کاملHeat capacity at the glass transition
A fundamental problem of glass transition is to provide a quantitative and microscopic explanation of the heat-capacity jump at the glass transition temperature Tg . Similar problems are also common to other disordered systems, including spin glasses. We propose that the jump of heat capacity at Tg takes place as a result of the change of the liquid’s elastic, vibrational, and thermal propertie...
متن کاملVortex flow and transverse flux screening at the bose glass transition
We study the vortex phase diagram in untwinned YBCO crystals with columnar defects. These randomly distributed defects are expected to induce a "Bose glass" phase of localized vortices exhibiting a vanishing resistance and Meissner effect for magnetic fields H( perpendicular) transverse to the columns. We directly observe the transverse Meissner effect using a Hall probe array. As predicted, th...
متن کاملShear stresses of colloidal dispersions at the glass transition in equilibrium and in flow.
We consider a model dense colloidal dispersion at the glass transition, and investigate the connection between equilibrium stress fluctuations, seen in linear shear moduli, and the shear stresses under strong flow conditions far from equilibrium, viz., flow curves for finite shear rates. To this purpose, thermosensitive core-shell particles consisting of a polystyrene core and a cross-linked po...
متن کاملMechanical relaxation in glasses and at the glass transition
The Gilroy-Phillips model of relaxational jumps in asymmetric double well potentials, developed for the Arrhenius-type secondary relaxations of the glass phase, is extended to a formal description of the breakdown of the shear modulus at the glass transition, the α-process. The extension requires the introduction of two separate parts of the barrier distribution function f(V ), with a different...
