Using recently developed concepts to analyse the potential energy landscape one can get a fundamental understanding of the long-range transport of silica. It can be expressed in terms of properties of the thermodynamics as well as local relaxation processes, thereby extending the phenomenological standard picture of a strong glass-former. The local relaxation processes are characterized by complex correlated sequences of bond breaking and reformation processes.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2006-05-22T08:46:20.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "potential energy landscape", "liquid silica", "local relaxation processes", "properties", "strong glass-former" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
