Reply to 'Comment on 'Fitting of viscosity: Distinguishing the temperature dependences predicted by various models of supercooled liquids''

摘要

We agree with Cummins in the preceding Comment [Phys. Rev. E 54, 5870 (1996)] that the free-volume theory yields a fitting formula for log (viscosity or relaxation time) versus T data that is comparable in quality to that given by the theory of frustration-limited domains. We disagree with his arguments and conclusions, the latter suggesting that major flaws in the theory of frustration-limited domains have been uncovered.
