We compare the spatial correlations of bond-breaking events and bond-orientational relaxation in a model two-dimensional liquid undergoing Newtonian dynamics. We find that the relaxation time of the bond-breaking correlation function is much longer than the relaxation time of the bond-orientational correlation function and self-intermediate scattering function. However, the relaxation time of the bond-orientational correlation function increases faster with decreasing temperature than the relaxation time of the bond-breaking correlation function and the self-intermediate scattering function. Moreover, the dynamic correlation length that characterizes the size of correlated bond-orientational relaxation grows faster with decreasing temperature than the dynamic correlation length that characterizes the size of correlated bond-breaking events. We also examine the ensemble-dependent and ensemble-independent dynamic susceptibilities for both bond-breaking correlations and bond-orientational correlations. We find that for both correlations, the ensemble-dependent and ensemble-independent susceptibilities exhibit a maximum at nearly the same time, and this maximum occurs at a time slightly shorter than the peak position of the dynamic correlation length.
Recent computational studies have reported evidence of a metastable liquid-liquid phase transition (LLPT) in molecular models of water under deeply supercooled conditions. A competing hypothesis suggests, however, that non-equilibrium artifacts assoc
A theoretical treatment of deeply supercooled liquids is difficult because their properties emerge from spatial inhomogeneities that are self-induced, transient, and nanoscopic. I use computer simulations to analyse self-induced static and dynamic he
Glasses are solid materials whose constituent atoms are arranged in a disordered manner. The transition from a liquid to a glass remains one of the most poorly understood phenomena in condensed matter physics, and still no fully microscopic theory ex
The statistics of critical spin-spin correlation functions in Ising systems with non-frustrated disorder are investigated on a strip geometry, via numerical transfer-matrix techniques. Conformal invariance concepts are used, in order to test for loga
The scaling of the bond-bond correlation function $C(s)$ along linear polymer chains is investigated with respect to the curvilinear distance, $s$, along the flexible chain and the monomer density, $rho$, via Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics simula
