Structure-dynamics relationships in cryogenically deformed bulk metallic glass
Understanding of the atomic-scale mechanisms of rejuvenation of bulk metallic glass still remains unclear. Here, using configurational entropy derived from X-ray experiments, authors show a clear picture of the relaxation process during annealing of a ...

Quantum Annealing search of Ising spin glass ground state(s) with tunable transverse & longitudinal fields [PDF]
Here we first discuss briefly the quantum annealing technique. We then study the quantum annealing of Sherrington-Kirkpatrick spin glass model with the tuning of both transverse and longitudinal fields. Both the fields are time-dependent and vanish adiabatically at the same time, starting from high values.

Optical properties of annealed As30Te67Ga3 thin films grown by thermal evaporation [PDF]
Chalcogenide glasses have received lots of attention because of their superior optical properties. To optimize these properties and expand areas of applications, more studies are required to establish the extent to which the parameters can be tuned over ...

Thermodynamic Limit for Spin Glasses. Beyond the Annealed Bound [PDF]
Using a correlation inequality of Contucci and Lebowitz for spin glasses, we demonstrate existence of the thermodynamic limit for short-ranged spin glasses, under weaker hypotheses than previously available, namely without the assumption of the annealed bound.

Yielding transition of a two dimensional glass former under athermal cyclic shear deformation [PDF]
We study numerically the yielding transition of a two dimensional model glass subjected to athermal quasi-static cyclic shear deformation, with the aim of investigating the effect on the yielding behaviour of the degree of annealing, which in turn depends on the preparation protocol.
