متن کاملHopping in a supercooled Lennard-Jones liquid: metabasins, waiting time distribution, and diffusion.
We investigate the jump motion among potential energy minima of a Lennard-Jones model glass former by extensive computer simulation. From the time series of minima energies, it becomes clear that the energy landscape is organized in superstructures called metabasins. We show that diffusion can be pictured as a random walk among metabasins, and that the whole temperature dependence resides in th...
متن کاملThermodynamic scaling of diffusion in supercooled Lennard-Jones liquids.
The manner in which the intermolecular potential u(r) governs structural relaxation in liquids is a long standing problem in condensed matter physics. Herein, we show, in agreement with recent experimental results, that diffusion coefficients for simulated Lennard-Jones m-6 liquids (8 < or = m < or = 36) in normal and moderately supercooled states are a unique function of the variable rhogamma/...
متن کاملHow reproducible are dynamic heterogeneities in a supercooled liquid?
The particle dynamics in a liquid exhibits a transient spatial distribution of dynamic heterogeneities. The relationship between this kinetic structure and the underlying particle configuration remains an outstanding problem. In this Letter, we present a general simulation technique for identifying the features of the dynamic heterogeneity which arise due to a specific configuration, as distinc...
متن کاملScaled vapor-to-liquid nucleation in a Lennard-Jones system.
Scaling of the homogenous vapor-to-liquid nucleation rate, J, is observed in a model Lennard-Jones (LJ) system. The model uses Monte Carlo simulation-generated small cluster growth to decay rate constant ratios and the kinetic steady-state nucleation rate formalism to determine J at four temperatures below the LJ critical temperature, T{c}. When plotted vs the scaled supersaturation, lnS/[T{c}/...
