Collective Relaxation Dynamics in a Three-Dimensional Lattice Glass Model

Yoshihiko Nishikawa
Ludovic Berthier

Résumé

We numerically elucidate the microscopic mechanisms controlling the relaxation dynamics of a three-dimensional lattice glass model that has static properties compatible with the approach to a random first-order transition. At low temperatures, the relaxation is triggered by a small population of particles with low-energy barriers forming mobile clusters. These emerging quasiparticles act as facilitating defects responsible for the spatially heterogeneous dynamics of the system, whose characteristic lengthscales remain strongly coupled to thermodynamic fluctuations. We compare our findings both with existing theoretical models and atomistic simulations of glass-formers.
