ABSTRACTWe study a binary Lennard-Jones mixture below the glass transition with molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. To investigate the dynamics of the system we define single particle jumps via their single particle trajectories. We find two kinds of jumps: metastable jumps, where a particle jumps back and forth between two or more states, and real jumps, where a particle does not return to any of its former states. For both the real and metastable jumps we present as a function of temperature the number of jumps, jump size, time between jumps, and energy.
