Configurational entropy of binary hard-disk glasses: nonexistence of an ideal glass transition.
We study the thermodynamics of a binary hard-disk mixture in which the ratio of disk diameters is kappa=1.4. We use a recently developed molecular dynamics algorithm to calculate the free-volume entropy of glassy configurations and obtain the configurational entropy (degeneracy) of the supercompressed liquid as a function of density. We find that the configurational entropy of the glasses near ...
متن کاملVanishing of configurational entropy may not imply an ideal glass transition in randomly pinned liquids.
The paper by Ozawa et al. (1) presents numerical results for the configurational entropy density, sc, of a model glass-forming liquid in the presence of random pinning. The location of a “phase boundary” in the pin density (c)− temperature (T) plane, which separates an “ideal glass” phase from the supercooled liquid phase, is obtained by finding the points at which scðT , cÞ→ 0. According to th...
متن کاملConfigurational Entropy Revisited
1548 Journal of Chemical Education • Vol. 84 No. 9 September 2007 • www.JCE.DivCHED.org Entropy change is categorized in some prominent general chemistry textbooks as being either positional (configurational) or thermal. Positional entropy focuses on the number of positions in space that can be occupied by the molecules of a system. Then, to the extent that more positions exist after a process ...
متن کاملAn Inside View of Magnetic Skyrmions
A magnetic skyrmion is the smallest possible perturbation to a uniform magnet: a pointlike region of reversed magnetization, surrounded by a whirling twist of spins. Such skyrmions are quasiparticles—they do not exist in the absence of a magnetic state–and they give rise to emergent electrodynamics that cannot be simply described by Maxwell’s equations. The particles are also attractive candida...
متن کاملConfigurational entropy of hard spheres
We numerically calculate the configurational entropy Sconf of a binary mixture of hard spheres, by using a perturbed Hamiltonian method trapping the system inside a given state, which requires less assumptions than the previous methods [R.J. Speedy, Mol. Phys. 95, 169 (1998)]. We find that Sconf is a decreasing function of packing fraction φ and extrapolates to zero at the Kauzmann packing frac...
