Outline * Peter Harrowell (UCGS Bangalore) Part I -- A (numerically exact) calculation of the statistical properties of the landscape of a strong liquid 1.Thermodynamic in the Stillinger-Weber formalism 2.Gaussian Statistic 3.Deviation from Gaussian 4.The model Dynamics ---- STRONG LIQUID Landscape ---- KNOWN ! Part II -- Dynamic and Static heterogeneities (the central dogma * )

Maximum Valency Model ( Speedy-Debenedetti ) A minimal model for network forming liquids SW if # of bonded particles <= Nmax HS if # of bonded particles > Nmax V(r) r Maximum Valency The IS configurations coincide with the bonding pattern !!! Zaccarelli et al PRL (2005) Moreno et al Cond Mat (2004)

19
Connection between Dynamics and Structure !
20
An IS is a bonding pattern !!!!! F(T)=-T S conf (, T) +f basin (,T) with f basin (e IS,T)= e IS +f vib (e IS,T) and S conf (T)=k B ln[ ( )] Basin depth and shape Number of explored basins
21
It is possible to calculate exactly the basin free energy ! Basin Free energy Frenkel-Ladd
22
Entropies… S vib increases linearly with the # of bonds S conf follows a x ln(x) law S conf does NOT extrapolate to zero
23
Self-consistent calculation ---> S(T) Self consistence
24
Part 1 - Take home message(s): Network forming liquids tend to reach their (bonding) ground state on cooling (e IS different from 1/T) The bonding ground state can be degenerate. Degeneracy related to the number of possible networks with full bonding. The discretines of the bonding energy (dominant as compared to the other interactions) favors an Arrhenius dynamics and a logarithmic IS entropy. Network liquids are intrinsically different from non-networks, The approach to the ground state is NOT hampered by phase separation
25
Part II -Dynamic Heterogeneities J. Chem. Phys. B 108,19663,2004 (attempting to avoid any a priori definition) Look at differences between different realizations Dynamic Eterogeneities SPC/E Water 100 realizations nn distance =0.28 nm Follow dyanmics for MSD = (2 x 0.28) 2 nm 2
