Spatially Heterogeneous Dynamics and the Adam−Gibbs Relation in the Dzugutov Liquid

Spatially Heterogeneous Dynamics and the Adam−Gibbs Relation in the Dzugutov Liquid

We perform molecular dynamics simulations of a one-component glass-forming liquid and use the inherent structure formalism to test the predictions of the Adam-Gibbs (AG) theory and to explore the possible connection between these predictions and spatially heterogeneous dynamics. We calculate the temperature dependence of the average potential energy of the …
