| Session 464 - Structure and Properties of Polymers III: Dynamics of Glass Formers | |||
| Understanding the dynamics of glass forming materials both above and below the glass temperature is of fundamental and practical importance. Here we solicit papers in the following areas: microscopic and molecular mechanisms of dynamics in glass-forming liquids; fragility dielectric spectroscopy; mechanical spectroscopy; linear and nonlinear response; effects of confinement on dynamics; pressure, volume and temperature influences on dynamics; and dynamics in the glassy state. | |||
