About The Book
Glassy Dynamics: From Molecular to Colloidal Glasses offers an in-depth exploration of one of the most intriguing and unresolved questions in condensed matter physics: the nature of glasses. These non-crystalline, amorphous solids are prevalent in daily life, from plastics to cosmetic gels, yet their fundamental properties and the mechanisms behind their formation remain elusive.
The book delves into the latest theoretical and experimental research on glassy physics, covering topics from molecular glasses to colloidal and granular media. Leading experts in the field provide original perspectives on this complex subject, emphasizing the importance of heterogeneities in the dynamics of glass formation. With contributions from prominent researchers such as Ludovic Berthier, Giulio Biroli, Luca Cipelletti, Jean-Philippe Bouchaud, and Wim van Saarloos, the book surveys recent advances and offers valuable insights for researchers and students alike.
As a resource for advanced graduate students and researchers, this book is essential for anyone involved in glassy dynamics and related fields. It is also a crucial source for understanding the fundamental processes that underpin the formation of glasses and the role of disordered systems in condensed matter physics.
