Critical scaling and aging in cooling systems near the jamming transition
arXiv:0904.0206 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.102.138001
Abstract
We conduct athermal simulations of freely-cooling, viscous soft spheres around the jamming transition density ϕ_{J}, and find evidence for a growing length ξ(t) that governs relaxation to mechanical equilibrium. ξ(t) is manifest in both the velocity correlation function, and the spatial correlations in a scalar measure of local force balance which we define. Data for different densities ϕcan be collapsed onto two master curves by scaling ξ(t) and t by powers of |ϕ-ϕ_{J}|, indicative of critical scaling. Furthermore, particle transport for ϕ>ϕ_{J} exhibits aging and superdiffusion similar to a range of soft matter experiments, suggesting a common origin. Finally, we explain how ξ(t) at late times maps onto known behavior away from ϕ_{J}.
