In search of a theory of supercooled liquids
Steve A. Kivelson, Gilles Tarjus
TL;DR
This paper discusses the ongoing challenge of developing a universal theory for the transition of supercooled liquids into glasses, highlighting the need for a theory that is independent of specific details.
Contribution
It emphasizes the importance of formulating a universal, detail-independent theoretical framework for supercooled liquids and glasses.
Findings
Experimental observations suggest a universal behavior.
Current theories lack consensus and universality.
The need for a detail-independent theory is highlighted.
Abstract
Despite the absence of consensus on a theory of the transition from supercooled liquids to glasses, the experimental observations suggest that a detail-independent theory should exist.
