It has been investigated the static magnetic response of the polycrystalline rutheno-cuprate oxide GdSr 2 RuCu 2 O 8. The susceptibility χ shows an upturn at T C ~ 134 K which indicates the onset of a magnetic instability. Above that transition we have analyzed within a spin mode coupling theory the dependence of χ-1 in the form of ~ (T - TC)γ. The main finding is that the value of the critical exponent γ can be understood as mainly due ferromagnetic fluctuations, assuming that the system is close to its quantum paramagnetic instability and that the magnetization comes primarily from itinerant moments, rather than moments localized to the atomic sites.

Brownian dynamics simulations of bidisperse hard discs moving in two dimensions in a given steady and homogeneous shear flow are presented close to and above the glass transition density. The stationary structure functions and stresses of shear-melted glass are compared quantitatively to parameter-free numerical calculations of monodisperse hard discs using mode coupling theory within the integration through transients framework. Theory qualitatively explains the properties of the yielding glass but quantitatively overestimates the shear-driven stresses and structural anisotropies.

Soft glasses produced after the cessation of shear flow exhibit persistent residual stresses. Mode coupling theory of the glass transition explains their history dependence in terms of nonequilibrium, nonlinear-response relaxation of density fluctuations.

The physics of active systems of self-propelled particles, in the regime of a dense liquid state, is an open puzzle of great current interest, both for statistical physics and because such systems appear in many biological contexts. We obtain a nonequilibrium mode-coupling theory for such systems and present analytical scaling relations through mapping with a simpler model of a single trapped active particle.
