Glassy Dynamics

Glassy Dynamics is a theoretical framework within condensed matter physics that describes the slow, non-equilibrium relaxation processes and dynamical heterogeneities characteristic of disordered systems such as amorphous solids and supercooled liquids, distinguished from ordinary viscous flow by the emergence of temporally and spatially correlated motion near the glass transition.
