Wolfgang Götze

Complex Dynamics of Glass-Forming Liquids

A Mode-Coupling Theory

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Amorphous condensed matter can exhibit complex motions on time scales which extend up to those relevant for the functioning of biomaterials. The book presents the derivation of a microscopic theory for amorphous matter, which exhibits the evolution of such complex motions as a new paradigm of strongly interacting particle systems. e
