Persistence-Driven Void Formation in Dense Active-Passive Mixtures
Giulia Janzen, Liesbeth M. C. Janssen, Nuno A. M. Araújo +2
It is well established that dilute active dopants can melt an arrested amorphous solid by enhancing cage breaking and accelerating structural relaxation. Yet it remains unclear whe…
Fundamental measure theory for predicting many-body correlation functions
Ilian Pihlajamaa, Teunike A. van de Pol, Liesbeth M. C. Janssen
We study many-body correlation functions within various Fundamental Measure Theory (FMT) formulations and compare their predictions to Monte Carlo simulations of hard-sphere fluids…
Polydispersity-driven dynamical differences between two- and three-dimensional supercooled liquids
Ilian Pihlajamaa, Lotte van Gessel, Corentin Laudicina +2
Previous studies have suggested a conundrum in the relaxation dynamics of polydisperse supercooled liquids. It has been shown that in two dimensions, the relative relaxation times…
Dissecting mode-coupling theory for supercooled liquids
Ilian Pihlajamaa, Liesbeth M. C. Janssen
The mode-coupling theory (MCT) of the glass transition ranks among the most successful first-principles kinetic theories to describe glassy dynamics. However, MCT does not fully ac…
