Some facets of the way sound waves travel through glasses are still unclear. Recent works have shown that in the low-temperature harmonic limit a crucial role in controlling sound damping is played by local elastic heterogeneity. Sound waves propagation has been demonstrated to be strongly affected by inhomogeneous mechanical features of the materials, which add to the anharmonic couplings at finite temperatures. We describe the interplay between these two effects by molecular dynamics simulation of a model glass. In particular, we focus on the transverse components of the vibrational excitations in terms of dynamic structure factors, and characterize the temperature dependence of sound attenuation rates in an extended frequency range. We provide a complete picture of all phenomena, in terms encompassing both theory and experiments.

Volume and enthalpy relaxation of glasses after a sudden temperature change has been extensively studied since Kovacs seminal work. One observes an asymmetric approach to equilibrium upon cooling versus heating and, more counter-intuitively, the expa nsion gap paradox, i.e. a dependence on the initial temperature of the effective relaxation time even close to equilibrium when heating. Here we show that a distinguishable-particles lattice model can capture both the asymmetry and the expansion gap. We quantitatively characterize the energetic states of the particles configurations using a physical realization of the fictive temperature called the structural temperature, which, in the heating case, displays a strong spatial heterogeneity. The system relaxes by nucleation and expansion of warmer mobile domains having attained the final temperature, against cooler immobile domains maintained at the initial temperature. A small population of these cooler regions persists close to equilibrium, thus explaining the paradox.

It is argued that the main characteristic features of displacive relaxor ferrolectrics of the form ${rm{A(B,B)}rm{O}}_3$ with isovalent ${rm{B,B}}$ can be explained and understood in terms of a soft-pseudospin analogue of conventional spin glasses as extended to itinerant magnet systems. The emphasis is on conceptual comprehension and on stimulating new perspectives with respect to previous and future studies. Some suggestions are made for further studies both on actual real systems and on test model systems to probe further. The case of heterovalent systems is also considered briefly.
Due to high viscosity, glassy systems evolve slowly to the ordered state. Results of molecular dynamics simulation reveal that the structural ordering in glasses becomes observable over experimental (finite) time-scale for the range of phase diagram with high values of pressure. We show that the structural ordering in glasses at such conditions is initiated through the nucleation mechanism, and the mechanism spreads to the states at extremely deep levels of supercooling. We find that the scaled values of the nucleation time, $tau_1$ (average waiting time of the first nucleus with the critical size), in glassy systems as a function of the reduced temperature, $widetilde{T}$, are collapsed onto a single line reproducible by the power-law dependence. This scaling is supported by the simulation results for the model glassy systems for a wide range of temperatures as well as by the experimental data for the stoichiometric glasses at the temperatures near the glass transition.
Extensive experimental and numerical studies of the non-equilibrium dynamics of spin glasses subjected to temperature or bond perturbations have been performed to investigate chaos and memory effects in selected spin glass systems. Temperature shift and cycling experiments were performed on the strongly anisotropic Ising-like system {ising} and the weakly anisotropic Heisenberg-like system {AgMn}, while bond shift and cycling simulations were carried out on a 4 dimensional Ising Edwards-Anderson spin glass. These spin glass systems display qualitatively the same characteristic features and the observed memory phenomena are found to be consistent with predictions from the ghost domain scenario of the droplet scaling model.
