Configurons: Thermodynamic Parameters and Symmetry Changes at Glass Transition
Thermodynamic parameters of configurons – elementary excitations resulting from broken bonds in amorphous materials – are found from viscosity-temperature relationships. Glass-liquid transition phenomena and most popular models are described along with the configuron model of glass transit...
