High-resolution Brillouin scattering is used to achieve 3-dimensional maps of the longitudinal acoustic mode frequency shift in soda-lime silicate glasses subject to Vickers indentations. Assuming that residual stress-induced effects are simply proportional to density changes, residual densification fields are obtained. The density gradient is nearly isotropic, confirming earlier optical observations made on a similar glass. The results show that Brillouin micro-spectroscopy opens the way to a fully quantitative comparison of experimental data with predictions of mechanical models for the identification of a constitutive law.

An argument that relaxor ferroelectricity in the isovalent alloy $mathrm {Ba(Zr}_{1-x}mathrm{Ti}_{x})mathrm{O}_3$ can be understood as an induced moment soft pseudo-spin glass on the B-ions of the $mathrm{ABO}_{3}$ matrix is extended to the experimen tally paradigmic but theoretically more complex heterovalent relaxor $mathrm {Pb(Mg}_{1/3}mathrm{Nb}_{2/3}mathrm{)O}_3$ (PMN). It is argued that interesting behaviour of the onset of non-ergodicity, frequency-dependent susceptibility peaks and precursor nanodomains can be understood from analagous considerations of the B-ions, with the displacements of the Pb ions a largely independent, but distracting, side-feature. This contrasts with conventional conceptualizations.

We revisit the controversy, discussed recently by Goldstein in this journal[J. Chem. Phys. 128,154510 (2008)], whether the residual entropy is real or fictional. It is shown that the residual entropy loss conjecture (ELC) at the glass transition, whi ch results in a discontinuous entropy violates many fundamental principles of classical thermodynamics, and also contradicts some experimental facts. Assuming, as is common in the field, that glasses are in internal equilibrium, we show that the continuity of enthalpy and volume at the glass transition require the continuity of the Gibbs free energy and the entropy, which contradicts ELC. It is then argued that ELC is founded on an incorrect understanding of what it means for a glass to be kinetically trapped in a basin and of the concept of probability and entropy. Once this misunderstanding is corrected in our approach by the proper identification of entropy as the ensemble entropy, which is in accordance with the principle of reproducibility (see Sect. II), it follows immediately that the residual entropy does not disappear in a kinetically frozen glassy state and all the violations of thermodynamics disappear. We show that the temporal definition of entropy over finite times does not make sense for glasses as it is not unique. There is no loss of ergodicity and causality, contrary to some recent claims.
We present a new optical arrangement which allows to avoid the broadening by finite aperture in Brillouin spectroscopy. In this system, all the rays scattered at the same angle by the whole scattering volume are collected on a single pixel of the are a detector. This allows to use large collection angles, increasing the luminosity without lowering the accuracy of the frequency-shift and linewidth measurements. Several results of experimental checks are provided, showing the efficiency of the device.
We use textit{ab initio} molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the properties of the dry surface of pure silica and sodium silicate glasses. The surface layers are defined based on the atomic distributions along the direction ($z-$direction) perpendicular to the surfaces. We show that these surfaces have a higher concentration of dangling bonds as well as two-membered (2M) rings than the bulk samples. Increasing concentration of Na$_2$O reduces the proportion of structural defects. From the vibrational density of states, one concludes that 2M rings have a unique vibrational signature at a frequency $approx850$~cm$^{-1}$, compatible with experimental findings. We also find that, due to the presence of surfaces, the atomic vibration in the $z-$direction is softer than for the two other directions. The electronic density of states shows clear the differences between the surface and interior and we can attribute these to specific structural units. Finally, the analysis of the electron localization function allows to get insight on the influence of local structure and the presence of Na on the nature of chemical bonding in the glasses.
Domain structure of paracetamol -- popular antipyretic analgesic -- was investigated by infrared (IR) spectroscopy using synchrotron radiation. Absorbance and retardance maps reveal molecular orientation inside the micro-domains of the paracetamol fo rm II which has a better water solubility and compressibility compared to the commercially used forms I. The developed method of analysis representing orientation of optical slow(fast)-axis is compared with azimuthal orientation of the absorbance at several specific IR bands using vector maps. High brightness of synchrotron radiation and hyper-spectral mapping of structural domains in paracetamol clearly reveals the domain boundaries and can potentially be used to observe emph{in situ} intra-phase transformations of paracetamol forms-I, II, III and melting, which are important for making medical tablets and powders by an industrial process.
