Emergence of Intermediate Range Order in Jammed Packings

Author(s): Joseph M. Monti, Ishan Srivastava, Leonardo E. Silbert, A. P. Santos, Joel T. Clemmer, Jeremy B. Lechman, and Gary S. Grest We perform a structural analysis of large scale jammed packings of monodisperse, frictionless and frictional spheres to elucidate structural signatures of the static structure factor in the low-to-intermediate wave number region. We employ discrete element method simulations containing up to $8×{10}… [Phys. Rev. Lett. 134, 228201] Published Thu Jun 05, 2025
