Ultra-long-range dynamic correlations in a microscopic model for aging gels.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We use large-scale computer simulations to explore the nonequilibrium aging dynamics in a microscopic model for colloidal gels. We find that gelation resulting from a kinetically arrested phase separation is accompanied by "anomalous" particle dynamics revealed by superdiffusive particle motion and compressed exponential relaxation of time correlation functions. Spatiotemporal analysis of the dynamics reveals intermittent heterogeneities producing spatial correlations over extremely large length scales. Our study is a microscopically resolved model reproducing all features of the spontaneous aging dynamics observed experimentally in soft materials.

Emergence of long-range correlations and rigidity at the dynamic glass transition.
At the so-called dynamic glass transition predicted by the mean-field replica approach equilibrium liquid's translational symmetry is spontaneously broken, albeit at the microscopic level. We show that this fact implies the emergence of Goldstone modes and long-range density correlations. We derive and evaluate a new statistical mechanical expression for the glass shear modulus.
متن کاملMetastable states, anomalous distributions and correlations in the HMF model
We study the microscopic dynamics of the metastable Quasi-Stationary States (QSS) in the Hamiltonian Mean Field (HMF) model, a Hamiltonian system of N classical inertial spins with infinite-range interactions which shows a second order phase transition. In order to understand the origin of metastability, which appears in an energy region below the critical point, we consider two different class...
متن کاملEmpirical estimates for various correlations in longitudinal-dynamic heteroscedastic hierarchical normal models
In this paper, we first define longitudinal-dynamic heteroscedastic hierarchical normal models. These models can be used to fit longitudinal data in which the dependency structure is constructed through a dynamic model rather than observations. We discuss different methods for estimating the hyper-parameters. Then the corresponding estimates for the hyper-parameter that causes the association...
متن کاملAiming Higher: Advancing Public Social Insurance for Long-term Care to Meet the Global Aging Challenge; Comment on “Financing Long-term Care: Lessons From Japan”
Globally, aging populations are driving the demand for long-term care (LTC) services for a growing number of older people with disabilities or chronic illnesses. A key challenge for policy-makers in all countries is to find a comprehensive solution to financing LTC services to make them widely accessible, affordable, and equitable for all in need. In this commentary, we...
متن کاملAccess control in ultra-large-scale systems using a data-centric middleware
The primary characteristic of an Ultra-Large-Scale (ULS) system is ultra-large size on any related dimension. A ULS system is generally considered as a system-of-systems with heterogeneous nodes and autonomous domains. As the size of a system-of-systems grows, and interoperability demand between sub-systems is increased, achieving more scalable and dynamic access control system becomes an im...
