摘要
We discuss the relaxation in glasses in terms of local relaxation events (LRE) which glass uses to adjust to external perturbations. The dynamics of LRE is governed by a differential equation with a solution that fits well to the stretched-exponential relaxation. We discuss how this picture gives rise to the observed correlations of nonexponentiality with temperature, relaxation time, and structure of glass or fragility of a glass-forming system.
