“…Within such timescales, the system changes many times the inherent structure (IS, local minimum or basin of attraction in the potential energy surface), an event that entails a small localized particle rearrangement, but has not been able to perform a collective long-range rearrangement characteristic of a d-cluster since it has been confined within the local metabasin, a collection of structurally very similar configurations. The d-cluster, which brings the system out of such MB, occurs within the high propensity region 24,29 and has been related to the soft modes present in the system at such times 19,32,33 . To summarize, in this work we have shown that not only the local structure poses its constraints on the dynamics of glassy systems, but that the opposite is also valid, that is, the dynamical events responsible for the α relaxation clearly modify the propensity pattern.…”
