Glass-Transition Properties from Hard Spheres to Charged Point Particles

Abstract

The glass transition is investigated in three dimensions for single and double Yukawa potentials for the full range of control parameters. For vanishing screening parameter, the limit of the one-component plasma is obtained; for large screening parameters and high coupling strengths, the glass-transition properties crossover to the hard-sphere system. Between the two limits, the entire transition diagram can be described by analytical functions. Different from other potentials, the glass-transition and melting lines for Yukawa potentials are found to follow shifted but otherwise identical curves in control-parameter space.
