We probe the Ioffe-Regel limits of glasses with repulsions near the zero-temperature jamming transition by calculating the dynamical structure factors. The Ioffe-Regel limit (frequency) is reached when the phonon wavelength is comparable to the mean free path, beyond which phonons are no longer well defined. At zero t…

By using broadband dielectric spectroscopy in the radio frequency and microwave range, we studied the magnetoelectric dynamics in the multiferroic chiral antiferromagnet MnWO_{4}. Above the multiferroic phase transition at T_{N2}≈12.6 K we observe a critical slowing of the corresponding magnetoelectric fluctuations re…
