We investigate the relaxation process and the dynamical heterogeneities of the kinetically constrained Kob-Andersen lattice glass model and show that these are characterized by different time scales.

Abstract

We investigate the relaxation process and the dynamical heterogeneities of the kinetically constrained Kob-Andersen lattice glass model and show that these are characterized by different time scales. The dynamics is well described within the diffusing defect paradigm, which suggests that we relate the relaxation process to a reverse-percolation transition. This allows for a geometrical interpretation of the relaxation process and of the different time scales.
