摘要
Molecular dynamics simulations have been performed on the norbomene plastic crystal in the temperature range 125-320 K. This investigation shows the existence of a remarkable dynamical crossover in the pico-nanosecond regime at the temperature T-A similar or equal to 200 K consistent with previous NMR and union spin rotation experiments performed on the same compound. This temperature corresponds to the onset of non-exponential relaxation and non-Arrhenius behavior very much in keeping with recent views proposed for supercooled liquids.
