Colloidal glass transition: beyond mode-coupling theory.
A new theory for the dynamics of concentrated colloidal suspensions and the colloidal glass transition is proposed. The starting point is the memory function representation of the density correlation function. The memory function can be expressed in terms of a time-dependent pair-density correlation function. An exact, formal equation of motion for this function is derived and a factorization a...
متن کاملHigh-order mode-coupling theory for the colloidal glass transition.
A theoretical approach is developed to derive a hierarchy of mode-coupling equations for the dynamics of concentrated colloidal suspensions, which improves the prediction of the colloidal glass transition. Our derivation is based on a matrix formalism for stochastic dynamics and the resulting recursive expressions for irreducible memory functions. The 1st order truncation of the generalized mod...
متن کاملThe Mode-Coupling Theory of the Glass Transition
We give a brief introduction to the mode-coupling theory of the glass transition, a theory which was proposed a while ago to describe the dynamics of supercooled liquids. After presenting the basic equations of the theory, we review some of its predictions and compare these with results of experiments and computer simulations. We conclude that the theory is able to describe the dynamics of supe...
متن کاملMode-coupling as a Landau theory of the glass transition
We derive the Mode Coupling Theory (MCT) of the glass transition as a Landau theory, formulated as an expansion of the exact dynamical equations in the difference between the correlation function and its plateau value. This sheds light on the universality of MCT predictions. While our expansion generates higher order non-local corrections that modify the standard MCT equations, we find that the...
متن کاملGlass transition in fullerenes: mode-coupling theory predictions.
We report idealized mode-coupling theory results for the glass transition of ensembles of model fullerenes interacting via phenomenological two-body potentials. Transition lines are found for C60, C70, and C96 in the temperature-density plane. We argue that the observed glass transition behavior is indicative of kinetic arrest that is strongly driven by the interparticle attraction in addition ...
