Emergence of rigidity at the structural glass transition: a first principle computation

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

We compute the shear modulus of structural glasses from a first principle approach based on the cloned liquid theory. We find that the intra-state shear-modulus, which corresponds to the plateau modulus measured in linear visco-elastic measurements, strongly depends on temperature and vanishes continuously when the temperature is increased beyond the glass temperature.
