dc.descriptionA new Monte Carlo algorithm is introduced for the simulation of supercooled liquids and glass formers, and tested in two model glasses. The algorithm is shown to thermalize well below the Mode Coupling temperature and to outperform other optimized Monte Carlo methods. Using the algorithm, we obtain finite size effects in the specific heat. This effect points to the existence of a large correlation length measurable in equal time correlation functions.
