Spatially Resolved Distribution Function and the Medium-Range Order in Metallic Liquid and Glass
The structural description of disordered systems has been a longstanding challenge in physical science. We propose an atomic cluster alignment method to reveal the development of three-dimensional topological ordering in a metallic liquid as it undercools to form a glass. By analyzing molecular dyna...
