Dhillon, Param Pash.

Slow dynamics and aging in metastable systems. - 79 p.

Adviser: David R. Reichman.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Harvard University, 2007.

This thesis focuses on slow dynamics in glass-forming systems. We tackle a range of problems, including the microscopic nature of elasticity, aging, and the development of a microscopic theoretical description of these systems.

520 $a This thesis focuses on slow dynamics in glass-forming systems. We tackle a range of problems, including the microscopic nature of elasticity, aging, and the development of a microscopic theoretical description of these systems.
520 $a First, we connect dynamical heterogeneity and elasticity in a supercooled liquid near the glass transition. Using standard molecular dynamics techniques, we simulate a polydisperse system of hard spheres, and focus on dynamically slow particles. We find that in a supercooled liquid, a cluster of slow particles spans the system at short time scales, but dissociates on longer time scales. However, in the glass, spanning clusters persist for all observable time scales. The lifetime of the spanning cluster is quantitatively connected to the viscoelastic moduli of the system, thus establishing a link between microscopic dynamical heterogeneity and elasticity, the macroscopic feature that distinguishes a glass from a liquid.
520 $a We then shift to the aging behavior in a stripe-forming system quenched below the order-disorder transition, simulated with Langevin dynamics. In order to study fluctuation-dissipation relations, we develop a field-free method to calculate the integrated response function. This allows us characterize the evolution of this metastable system towards equilibrium. We find that the aging behavior of this system resembles neither simple coarsening nor simple glassy behavior. The aging is more rich than either of these scenarios, bearing some resemblance to that of critical coarsening systems.
520 $a Finally, we focus on the theoretical description of supercooled liquids near the glass transition, employing a new time-local mode-coupling approach which is motivated by recent work on turbulent systems. We present the results of this approach on a toy model inspired by microscopic considerations, and find some noteable improvements over mode-coupling theory, including the disappearance of the dynamically sharp glass transition and an exponential dependence of the relaxation times on the coupling strength.
