| dc.description | We have analyzed a non-randomly frustrated spin model which exhibits behavior remarkably similar to the phenomenology of structural glasses. The high-temperature disordered phase undergoes a strong first-order transition to a long-range ordered structure. Using Monte Carlo simulations, we have studied the behavior of the supercooled state by quenching to temperatures below this transition temperature. For a range of supercooling, the system remains ergodic and exhibits dynamics characteristic of supercooled liquids. Below a certain characteristic temperature, however, the system freezes into a "glassy" phase. In this phase, the system is non-ergodic and evolves through a distribution of traps characterized by a power-law distribution of trapping times. This change in the dynamic behavior is concurrent with the appearance of a shear instability. | |
