ShareSummary
The glass transition can be viewed simply as the point at which the viscosity of a structurally disordered liquid reaches a universal threshold value. But is the glass transition a purely dynamical phenomenon or is there an underlying thermodynamic phase transition? Simulations are presented in order to find some real explanation of the phenomenon.
