X Abstract

We show by means of experiments; theory; and simulations that the slow dynamics of coarsening systems displays dynamic heterogeneity similar to that observed in glass-forming systems. We measure dynamic heterogeneity via novel multipoint functions which quantify the emergence of dynamic; as opposed to static; correlations of fluctuations. Experiments are performed on a coarsening foam using time-resolved correlation; a recently introduced light scattering method. Theoretically we study the Ising model; and present exact results in one dimension; and numerical results in two dimensions. For all systems the same dynamic scaling of fluctuations with domain size is observed.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
