Dynamic relaxation is an intrinsic and universal feature of glasses and enables fluctuation
and dissipation to occur, which induces plentiful behaviour, maintains equilibrium, and …

Understanding mechanical relaxation, such as primary (α) and secondary (β) relaxation, is
key to unravel the intertwined relation between the atomic dynamics and non-equilibrium …

It is generally agreed upon that the primary or the structural-relaxation involving
reorientation of larger angles and/or translation of sizeable distances is the most important …

An intriguing problem in condensed matter physics is understanding the glass transition, in
particular the dynamics in the equilibrium liquid close to vitrification. Recent advances have …

Focusing on metallic glasses as model systems, we review the features and mechanisms of
the β-relaxations, which are intrinsic and universal to supercooled liquids and glasses, and …

After a short historical review concerning measurements of the dielectric response of simple
glass formers, we discuss the complex dielectric permittivity ε ̂ ν above and below the glass …

Traditionally, the field of advanced nanocomposites has relied on a fairly limited set of
building blocks; many with low reactivity and of limited variability. These limitations have …

The article outlines our current understanding of the multiple relaxations observed in
crystalline and amorphous solid polymers, as studied using dielectric techniques. An attempt …

The β-relaxation process in a highly viscous liquid and mechanically rigid glass may be
attributed to reorientational motions of (i) essentially all molecules with a nearly temperature …

We report on dielectric susceptibility measurements for the glass-forming systems toluene
and 1-propanol, both of which exhibit slow secondary relaxation (Johari β-process). We …
