At the crossover temperature from tunneling states to thermally activated relaxation, one finds a stronger decrease of the barrier density f(V) with increasing barrier height V than in silica. On the high barrier side, f(V) is determined by the Kohlrausch t β -tail of the viscous flow, with β = 0.31. In longitudinal ultrasound absorption data, one finds weak oscillations of the Kohlrausch barrier density, similar to those found recently in metallic glasses, consistent with an increase of the barrier by V 1 = S 1 T g /β for the addition of one selenium atom to the rearranging domain, where S 1 is the structural entropy per atom at the glass temperature T g .","PeriodicalId":43431,"journal":{"name":"Atti Accademia Peloritana dei Pericolanti-Classe di Scienze Fisiche Matematiche e Naturali","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2020-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44887883","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The first descriptions of the terahertz collective spectrum, mainly assigned to a single longitudinal acoustic-like mode similarly to simple liquids, have been progressively replaced by a complex scenario, with longitudinal and transverse acoustic-like and optic-like inelastic excitations. Complex phenomena (avoided crossing mechanisms between modes, a phonon gap introduced by the disorder and a slow- to fast-sound transition) have been highlighted in the dispersion curves of lipid bilayers. Systematic and comprehensive studies along the lines of the investigations reviewed here contribute to understand the role of the collective (coherent) chain dynamics in the passive transport across bilayers, in the formation of water wires inside dynamic defects in lipid bilayers and in other biological functions of biomembranes.","PeriodicalId":43431,"journal":{"name":"Atti Accademia Peloritana dei Pericolanti-Classe di Scienze Fisiche Matematiche e Naturali","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2020-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47484902","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
