Localization, Disorder, and Entropy in a Coarse-Grained Model of the Amorphous Solid
We study the role of disorder in producing the metastable states in which the extent of mass localization is intermediate between that of a liquid and a crystal with long-range order. We estimate the corresponding entropy with the coarse-grained description of a many-particle system used in the clas...
