Most metallic glasses (MGs) exhibit weak evidence of slow β-relaxation in their dynamic mechanical spectroscopy spectra. In contrast to other MGs, the La-based MGs we report here show a distinct slow β-relaxation peak in the mechanical relaxation measurements. We find that the slow β-relaxation behavior can be tuned by modification of the chemical composition and fragility. The structural origin of the slow β-relaxation and correlation between β-relaxation and α-relaxation in the MGs are also…

Relaxation of bulk metallic glasses studied by mechanical spectroscopy.
TLDR
It is found that the activation energy Uβ and the peak temperature Tβp of the β relaxation follow the approximate relationship: Uβ ≈ 31.5RTβp (for driving frequency 1 Hz), indicating that the high temperature limit of the peak frequency is approximately the same for all the MGs investigated.

Compositional origin of unusual β-relaxation properties in La-Ni-Al metallic glasses.
TLDR
It is found that the isochronal loss peak temperature of β-relaxation, Tβ,peak, is effectively determined by the total (La + Ni) content, and it is deduced that La and Ni have high mobility in the MGs, and this explains why the β- Relaxation in this La-based MGs is prominent and well resolved from the α-relAXation.

TLDR
It is found that unlike fragile glasses the strong HQGeO(2) glass relaxes in a manner that all the secondary relaxation units contribute to the primary relaxation.

TLDR
It is found that in sorbitol the dynamics of the whole molecule contributes equally to the beta process, while in glycerol the hydrogen bond forming OH groups remain rather rigid compared to the hydrogens bonded to the carbon skeleton.
