Congratulations Dr. Mingyuan Zheng
Congratulations to Mingyuan for having successfully defended her PhD thesis today. It is a wonderful work! All the best with your next projects.
Revisiting (Local) Dynamical Heterogeneity in Glasses
Our joint analytical and computational study has recently appeared in Physical Review Letters. This work provides microscopic insight in the dynamical fluctuations observed in glass-forming liquids. The phenomenon, which was first identified in the 1990s, has been speculated by some Continue reading Revisiting (Local) Dynamical Heterogeneity in Glasses
Nobel Prize for Giorgio Parisi
Our long-time collaborator, Giorgio Parisi, was awarded half of this year’s Physics Nobel Prize. It’s thrilling news, which crowns more than 40 years of research efforts by Giorgio. We’re particularly excited to see our joint work on glasses highlighted by Continue reading Nobel Prize for Giorgio Parisi
Editors’ Suggestion for the RLG
A recent article by Dr. Yi Hu was highlighted in Physical Review E as an Editors’ Suggestion. It’s a well-deserved recognition for Yi’s seminal efforts toward understanding the glassy physics at play in the seminal random Lorentz gas model.
Congratulations to Dr. Yi Hu
Dr. Yi Hu not only successfully defended a PhD thesis in chemistry, but also a MS thesis in computer science. Congratulations, Yi, and all the best in your next projects!
Memory formation in glasses
Dr. Peter K Morse has recently made a breakthrough in the memory formation in jammed hard spheres. The results can be found in Physical Review Letters.
