Supercooled monodisperse WCA fluids have been simulated using the crystal-avoiding method. After mapping to hard spheres, we find that the “T1-activity” (a geometrical criterion for neighbor rearrangement) of particles is correlated with glassy dynamics.

Sticky hard spheres, i.e., hard particles decorated with a short-ranged attractive interaction potential, constitute a relatively simple model with highly non-trivial glassy dynamics. The mode-coupling theory of the glass transition...

While glassy dynamics remain largely uninfluenced by confinement, the δ-relaxation process slows down close to the glass transition.
