Hedgehog topological defects in 3D amorphous solids

Abstract The underlying structural disorder renders the concept of topological defects in amorphous solids difficult to apply and hinders a first-principle identification of the microscopic carriers of plasticity and of regions prone to structural rearrangements ("soft spots"). Recently, i...
