The spatial distribution of low-energy quasilocalized excitations in a 2D computer model of a structural glass. The location of each excitation can detected by the concentration of large displacements (long arrows), which also clearly reveal a glassy localization length. For additional information on this topic, see Low-energy quasilocalized excitations in structural glasses.
