11 Nov 2015 | | Abstract: | The growing sluggishness of glass-forming liquids is thought to be
accompanied by growing structural order. The nature of such order, however,
remains hotly debated. A decade ago, point-to-set (PTS) correlation lengths
were proposed as measures of amorphous order in glass formers, but recent
results raise doubts as to their generality. Here, we extend the definition of
PTS correlations in order to agnostically capture any type of growing order in
liquids, be it local or amorphous. This advance clarifies the nature of PTS
correlations, and enables the formulation of a clear distinction between
slowing down due to conventional critical ordering from that due to glassiness. | | Source: | arXiv, 1511.3573 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
