The dielectric anomalies of window-type glasses at low temperatures ($T<$ 1 K) are rather successfully explained by the two-level systems (2LS) tunneling model (TM). However, the magnetic effects discovered in the multisilicate glasses in recent times cite{ref1}-cite{ref3}, and also some older data from mixed (SiO$_2$)$_{1-x}$(K$_2$O)$_x$ and (SiO$_2$)$_{1-x}$(Na$_2$O)$_x$ glasses cite{ref4}, indicate the need for a suitable generalization of the 2LS TM. We show that, not only for the magnetic effects cite{ref3,ref5} but also for the mixed glasses in the absence of a field, the right extension of the 2LS TM is provided by the (anomalous) multilevel tunneling systems approach proposed by one of us. It appears that new 2LS develop via dilution near the hull of the SiO$_4$-percolating clusters in the mixed glasses.

The thermal and dielectric anomalies of window-type glasses at low temperatures ($T<$ 1 K) are rather successfully explained by the two-level systems (2LS) standard tunneling model (STM). However, the magnetic effects discovered in the multisilicate
glasses in recent times, magnetic effects in the organic glasses and also some older data from mixed (SiO$_2$)$_{1-x}$(K$_2$O)$_x$ and (SiO$_2$)$_{1-x}$(Na$_2$O)$_x$ glasses indicate the need for a suitable extension of the 2LS-STM. We show that -- not only for the magnetic effects, but already for the mixed glasses in the absence of a field -- the right extension of the 2LS STM is provided by the (anomalous) multilevel tunnelling systems (A-TS) proposed by one of us for multicomponent amorphous solids. Though a secondary type of TS, different from the standard 2LS, was invoked long ago already, we clarify their physical origin and mathematical description and show that their contribution considerably improves the agreement with the experimental data.
In highly doped uncompensated p-type layers within the central part of GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wells at low temperatures we observed an activated behavior of the conductivity with low activation energies (1-3) meV which can not be ascribed to standard me
chanisms. We attribute this behavior to the delocalization of hole states near the maximum of the narrow impurity band in the sense of the Anderson transition. Low temperature conduction $epsilon_4$ is supported by an activation of minority carriers - electrons (resulting from a weak compensation by back-ground defects) - from the Fermi level to the band of delocalized states mentioned above. The corresponding behavior can be specified as virtual Anderson transition. Low temperature transport ($<4$ K) exhibits also strong nonlinearity of a breakdown type characterized in particular by S-shaped I-V curve. The nonlinearity is observed in unexpectedly low fields ($<10$ V/cm). Such a behavior can be explained by a simple model implying an impact ionization of the localized states of the minority carriers mentioned above to the band of Anderson-delocalized states.
Glasses possess more low-frequency vibrational modes than predicted by Debye theory. These excess modes are crucial for the understanding the low temperature thermal and mechanical properties of glasses, which differ from those of crystalline solids.
Recent simulational studies suggest that the density of the excess modes scales with their frequency $omega$ as $omega^4$ in two and higher dimensions. Here, we present extensive numerical studies of two-dimensional model glass formers over a large range of glass stabilities. We find that the density of the excess modes follows $D_text{exc}(omega)sim omega^2 $ up to around the boson peak, regardless of the glass stability. The stability dependence of the overall scale of $D_text{exc}(omega)$ correlates with the stability dependence of low-frequency sound attenuation. However, we also find that in small systems, where the first sound mode is pushed to higher frequencies, at frequencies below the first sound mode there are excess modes with a system size independent density of states that scales as $omega^3$.
The boson peak in metallic glasses is modeled in terms of local structural shear rearrangements. Using Eshelbys solution of the corresponding elasticity theory problem (J. D. Eshelby, Proc. Roy. Soc. A241, 376 (1957)), one can calculate the saddle po
int energy of such a structural rearrangement. The neighbourhood of the saddle point gives rise to soft resonant vibrational modes. One can calculate their density, their kinetic energy, their fourth order potential term and their coupling to longitudinal and transverse sound waves.
Orientational glasses with CO molecules occupying 26% and 90% of the octahedral interstitial sites in the C60 lattice have been investigated by the dilatometric method in a temperature interval of 2.5 - 23 K. At temperatures 4 - 6 K the glasses under
go a first-order phase transition which is evident from the hysteresis of the thermal expansion and the maxima in the temperature dependences of the linear thermal expansion coefficients, and the thermalization times of the samples. The effect of the noncentral CO-C60 interaction upon the thermal expansion and the phase transition in these glasses was clarified by comparing the behavior of the properties of the CO-C60 and N2-C60 solutions.
