Time Scales of Fickian Diffusion and the Lifetime of Dynamic Heterogeneity
Dynamic heterogeneity, believed to be one of the hallmarks of the dynamics of supercooled liquids, is expected to affect the diffusion of the particles comprising the liquid. We have carried out extensive molecular dynamics simulations of two model glass forming liquids in three dimensions to study...
