Glassy dynamics and the potential energy landscape
The research within this thesis focuses on the behaviour of glass-forming systems as they are cooled towards the glass transition. In particular, the origins of fragile behaviour are examined. The study of glasses and supercooled liquids involves careful consideration of issues such as equilibrium,...
