Absence of a structural glass phase in a monoatomic model liquid predicted to undergo an ideal glass transition

preprint2007arXivOpen access

Abstract

We study numerically a monodisperse model of interacting classical particles predicted to exhibit a static liquid-glass transition. Using a dynamical Monte Carlo method we show that the model does not freeze into a glassy phase at low temperatures. Instead, depending on the choice of the hard-core radius for the particles the system either collapses trivially or a polycrystalline hexagonal structure emerges.
