Tagged-particle dynamics in a hard-sphere system: mode-coupling theory analysis.
The predictions of the mode-coupling theory of the glass transition (MCT) for the tagged-particle density-correlation functions and the mean-squared displacement curves are compared quantitatively and in detail to results from Newtonian- and Brownian-dynamics simulations of a polydisperse quasi-hard-sphere system close to the glass transition. After correcting for a 17% error in the dynamical l...
متن کاملScaled particle theory for hard sphere pairs. II. Numerical analysis.
We use the extension of scaled particle theory presented in the accompanying paper [F. H. Stillinger et al., J. Chem. Phys. 125, 204504 (2006)] to calculate numerically the pair correlation function of the hard sphere fluid over the density range 0< or =rhosigma(3)< or =0.96. Comparison with computer simulation results reveals that the new theory is able to capture accurately the fluid's struct...
متن کاملTagged-particle motion in glassy systems under shear: Comparison of mode coupling theory and Brownian dynamics simulations.
We study the dynamics of a tagged particle in a glassy system under shear. The recently developed integration through transients approach, based on mode coupling theory, is continued to arrive at the equations for the tagged-particle correlators and the mean squared displacements. The equations are solved numerically for a two-dimensional system, including a nonlinear stability analysis of the ...
متن کاملHard-sphere-like dynamics in a non-hard-sphere liquid.
The collective dynamics of liquid gallium close to the melting point has been studied using inelastic x-ray scattering to probe length scales smaller than the size of the first coordination shell. Although the structural properties of this partially covalent liquid strongly deviate from a simple hard-sphere model, the dynamics, as reflected in the quasielastic scattering, are beautifully descri...
متن کاملMetastable dynamics of the hard-sphere system.
The reformulation of the mode-coupling theory (MCT) of the liquid-glass transition which incorporates the element of metastability is applied to the hard-sphere system. It is shown that the glass transition in this system is not a sharp one at the special value of the density or the packing fraction, which is in contrast to the prediction by the conventional MCT. Instead we find that the slowin...
