The "Tunneling Two-Level Systems" Model of the Low-Temperature Properties of Glasses: Are "Smoking-Gun" Tests Possible?
Anthony James Leggett, Dervis Can Vural
Following a brief review of the "two-level (tunneling) systems" model of the low-temperature properties of amorphous solids ("glasses"), we ask whether it is in fact the unique exp…

Universal Sound Attenuation in Amorphous Solids at Low-Temperatures
Dervis Can Vural
Disordered solids are known to exhibit quantitative universalities at low temperatures, the most striking of which is the ultrasonic attenuation coefficient Q. The established theo…

Universal Sound Absorption in Amorphous Solids: A Theory of Elastically Coupled Generic Blocks
Dervis C. Vural, Anthony J. Leggett
Glasses are known to exhibit quantitative universalities at low temperatures, the most striking of which is the ultrasonic attenuation coefficient 1/Q. In this work we develop a th…
