Minimal model for Beta relaxation in viscous liquids.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Contrasts between beta relaxation in equilibrium viscous liquids and glasses are rationalized in terms of a double-well potential model with structure-dependent asymmetry, assuming structure is described by a single order parameter. The model is tested for tripropylene glycol where it accounts for the hysteresis of the dielectric beta loss peak frequency and magnitude during cooling and reheating through the glass transition.

A model for the generic alpha relaxation of viscous liquids
– Dielectric measurements on molecular liquids just above the glass transition indicate that alpha relaxation is characterized by a generic high-frequency loss varying as ω−1/2, whereas deviations from this come from one or more low-lying beta processes (Olsen et al., Phys. Rev. Lett., 86 (2001) 1271). Assuming that long-wavelength fluctuations dominate the dynamics, a model for the dielectric ...

This paper is the fifth in a series exploring the physical consequences of the solidity of highly viscous liquids. Paper IV proposed a model where the density field is described by a time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau equation of the nonconserved type with rates in k space of the form Gamma0+Dk2. If a is the average intermolecular distance, the model assumes that DGamma0a2. This inequality expresse...
متن کاملNonperturbative effect of attractive forces in viscous liquids.
We study the role of the attractive intermolecular forces in the viscous regime of a simple glass-forming liquid by using computer simulations. To this end, we compare the structure and the dynamics of a standard Lennard-Jones glass-forming liquid model with and without the attractive tail of the interaction potentials. The viscous slowing down of the two systems is found to be quantitatively a...
متن کاملPhenomenological models compatible with acoustical and thermal properties of viscous liquids
2014 After a very brief review on the dispersion of acoustical and thermal properties of viscous liquids at the liquid-glass transition, some information is given about the standard models : viscoelastic theory and irreversible thermodynamics as used by Mountain. Part 1 of the paper is devoted to the theory of forced Rayleigh scattering experiments using the model due to Mountain with one relax...
متن کاملSolidity of viscous liquids. III. relaxation
It is suggested that the −1/2 high-frequency decay of the loss in highly viscous liquids, which appears to be generic, is a manifestation of a negative long-time tail as typically encountered in stochastic dynamics. The proposed mechanism requires that the coherent diffusion constant is much larger than estimated from the relaxation time. This is justified by reference to the solidity of viscou...
