Time and length scales in supercooled liquids

Abstract

We numerically obtain the first quantitative demonstration that development of spatial correlations of mobility as temperature is lowered is responsible for the ``decoupling'' of transport properties of supercooled liquids. This result further demonstrates the necessity of a spatial description of the glass formation and therefore seriously challenges a number of popular alternative theoretical descriptions.
