Geometrical frustration and static correlations in hard-sphere glass formers.
(The Journal of chemical physics, 2013-03)
We analytically and numerically characterize the structure of hard-sphere fluids in
order to review various geometrical frustration scenarios of the glass transition.
We find generalized polytetrahedral order to be correlated ...
Dimensional dependence of the Stokes-Einstein relation and its violation
(Journal of Chemical Physics, 2013-10-28)
We generalize to higher spatial dimensions the Stokes-Einstein relation (SER) as well
as the leading correction to diffusivity in finite systems with periodic boundary
conditions, and validate these results with numerical ...
Configurational entropy measurements in extremely supercooled liquids that break the glass ceiling.
(Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2017-10-10)
Liquids relax extremely slowly on approaching the glass state. One explanation is
that an entropy crisis, because of the rarefaction of available states, makes it increasingly
arduous to reach equilibrium in that regime. ...
Gardner Phenomenology in Minimally Polydisperse Crystalline Systems
We study the structure and dynamics of crystals of minimally polydisperse
hard spheres at high pressures. Structurally, they exhibit a power-law scaling
in their probability distribution of weak forces and small interparticle ...
Clustering and assembly dynamics of a one-dimensional microphase former.
(Soft matter, 2018-03-26)
Both ordered and disordered microphases ubiquitously form in suspensions of particles
that interact through competing short-range attraction and long-range repulsion (SALR).
While ordered microphases are more appealing materials ...
Zero-temperature glass transition in two dimensions
The nature of the glass transition is theoretically understood in the
mean-field limit of infinite spatial dimensions, but the problem remains
totally open in physical dimensions. Nontrivial finite-dimensional fluctuations
are ...
Morphology of renormalization-group flow for the de Almeida-Thouless-Gardner universality class
A replica-symmetry-breaking phase transition is predicted in a host of
disordered media. The criticality of the transition has, however, long been
questioned below its upper critical dimension, six, due to the absence of ...
[N]pT ensemble and finite-size-scaling study of the critical isostructural transition in the generalized exponential model of index 4.
(Phys Rev E Stat Nonlin Soft Matter Phys, 2012-10)
First-order transitions of system where both lattice site occupancy and lattice spacing
fluctuate, such as cluster crystals, cannot be efficiently studied by traditional
simulation methods, which necessarily fix one of these ...
Correlation lengths in quasi-one-dimensional systems via transfer matrices
(Molecular Physics, 2018-06)
© 2018 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group. Using transfer matrices
up to next-nearest-neighbour interactions, we examine the structural correlations
of quasi-one-dimensional systems of hard disks confined ...
Classification of crystallization outcomes using deep convolutional neural networks.
(PloS one, 2018-01)
The Machine Recognition of Crystallization Outcomes (MARCO) initiative has assembled
roughly half a million annotated images of macromolecular crystallization experiments
from various sources and setups. Here, state-of-the-art ...
