The mean-square displacement (MSD) was measured by neutron scattering at various temperatures and pressures for a number of molecular glass-forming liquids. The MSD is invariant along the glass-transition line at the pressure studied, thus establishing an ``intrinsic Lindemann criterion for any given liquid. A one-to-one connection between the MSDs temperature dependence and the liquids fragility is found when the MSD is evaluated on a time scale of approximately 4 nanoseconds, but does not hold when the MSD is evaluated at shorter times. The findings are discussed in terms of the elastic model and the role of relaxations, and the correlations between slow and fast dynamics are addressed.

One of the central problems of the liquid-glass transition is whether there is a structural signature that can qualitatively distinguish different dynamic behaviors at different degrees of supercooling. Here, we propose a novel structural characteriz
ation based on the spatial correlation of local density and we show the locally dense-packed structural environment has a direct link with the slow dynamics as well as dynamic heterogeneity in glass-formers. We find that particles with large local density relax slowly and the size of cluster formed by the dense-packed particles increases with decreasing the temperature. Moreover, the extracted static length scale shows clear correlation with the relaxation time at different degrees of supercooling. This suggests that the temporarily but continuously formed locally dense-packed structural environment may be the structural origin of slow dynamics and dynamic heterogeneity of the glass-forming liquids.
We use event driven simulations to analyze glassy dynamics as a function of density and energy dissipation in a two-dimensional bidisperse granular fluid under stationary conditions. Clear signatures of a glass transition are identified, such as an i
ncrease of relaxation times over several orders of magnitude. As the inelasticity is increased, the glass transition is shifted to higher densities and the precursors of the transition become less and less pronounced -- in agreement with a recent mode-coupling theory. We analyze the long-time tails of the velocity autocorrelation and discuss its consequences for the nonexistence of the diffusion constant in two dimensions.
We report a study of the mode-coupling theory (MCT) glass transition line for the Girifalco model of C60 fullerene. The equilibrium static structure factor of the model, the only required input for the MCT calculations, is provided by molecular dynam
ics simulations. The glass transition line develops inside the metastable liquid-solid coexistence region and extends down in temperature, terminating on the liquid sideof the metastable portion of the liquid-vapor binodal. The vitrification locus does not show re-entrant behavior. A comparison with previous computer simulation estimates of the location of the glass line suggests that the theory accurately reproduces the shape of the arrest line in the density-temperature plane. The theoretical HNC and MHNC structure factors (and consequently the corresponding MCT glass line) compare well with the numerical counterpart. These evidences confirm the conclusion drawn in previous works about the existence of a glassy phase for the fullerene model at issue.
The glass transition in hydrogen-bonded glass formers differs from the glass transition in other glass formers. The Eshelby rearrangements of the highly viscous flow are superimposed by strongly asymmetric hydrogen bond rupture processes, responsible
for the excess wing. Their influence on the shear relaxation spectrum is strong in glycerol and close to zero in PPE, reflecting the strength of the hydrogen bond contribution to the high frequency shear modulus. An appropriate modification of a recent theory of the highly viscous flow enables a quantitative common description of the relaxation spectra in shear, linear and non-linear dielectrics, and heat capacity.
The complex behavior of confined fluids arising due to a competition between layering and local packing can be disentangled by considering quasi-confined liquids, where periodic boundary conditions along the confining direction restore translational
invariance. This system provides a means to investigate the interplay of the relevant length scales of the confinement and the local order. We provide a mode-coupling theory of the glass transition (MCT) for quasi-confined liquids and elaborate an efficient method for the numerical implementation. The nonergodicity parameters in MCT are compared to computer-simulation results for a hard-sphere fluid. We evaluate the nonequilibrium-state diagram and investigate the collective intermediate scattering function. For both methods, nonmonotonic behavior depending on the confinement length is observed.
