Researchers from the Institute of Industrial Science, The University of Tokyo show how previously unrecognized "exotic" configurations of particles contribute to the formation of a glass when a liquid is cooled. Using a computer simulation, they can monitor the packing of particles of various sizes, leading to the discovery of unexpected hidden order within a supercooled liquid.
