The ions interact with the BKS potential and the simulations are done in the NVE ensemble. We find that the frequency dependence of the specific heat shows qualitatively the same behavior as the one of structural quantities, in that at high frequencies a microscopic peak is observed and at low frequencies an alpha-peak, the location of which quickly moves to lower frequencies when the temperature is decreased.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1999-01-11T18:49:58.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "molecular dynamics computer simulation", "frequency dependent specific heat", "amorphous silica", "frequency dependence", "lower frequencies" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "AIP", "journal": "AIP Conf.
