Topological Signature of First Order Phase Transitions
L. Angelani, L. Casetti, M. Pettini +2
We show that the presence and the location of first order phase transitions in a thermodynamic system can be deduced by the study of the topology of the potential energy function,…
Crossover between Equilibrium and Shear-controlled Dynamics in Sheared Liquids
L. Angelani, G. Ruocco, F. Sciortino +2
We present a numerical simulation study of a simple monatomic Lennard-Jones liquid under shear flow, as a function of both temperature and shear rate. By investigating different ob…
Quasi-saddles as relevant points of the potential energy surface in the dynamics of supercooled liquids
L. Angelani, R. Di Leonardo, G. Ruocco +2
The supercooled dynamics of a Lennard-Jones model liquid is numerically investigated studying relevant points of the potential energy surface, i.e. the minima of the square gradien…
Temperature-dependent vibrational heterogeneities in harmonic glasses
G. Viliani, E. Duval, L. Angelani
Numerical simulation is employed to study dynamical heterogeneities in model harmonic glasses whose atoms interact via three variants of the Lennard-Jones potential (monoatomic ful…
