We found that the short-time behavior of the memory kernel for our MD-simulated glass-forming Ni$_{20}$Zr$_{80}$-system shows a deviation from the polynomial form predicted by MCT. By using the gaussian approximation we give a more detailed description of the short-time dynamics of the system.14 pages, 33 FiguresMaterials ScienceStatistical MechanicsThe memory kernel of the self-intermediate scattering function on a MD-simulated glass-forming Ni$_{20}$Zr$_{80}$-systemtext
