Structural relaxation in liquid Gallium
Abstract: Cooling down a liquid at ambient pressure all except Helium attain a solid state. If a crystalline state is reached a dramatic change in long range order occurs manifesting the first order phase transition. However, if crystallization can be avoided the liquid can be undercooled and eventually the material morphs into a glass. A lot of effort has been devoted to establish the changes in dynamics towards the glass transition in the past. Less simple to answer is the question at which temperature that slowing down sets in or whether such a temperature range exists at all. We observed in a few liquid metals changes in liquid dynamics which point to a universal behaviour. To put more weight on this conjecture we propose to investigate a metal with a rather different interaction potential, Gallium.
