We employ the reference interaction-site model (RISM) theory for solvation dynamics of simple ions in acetonitrile. For the description of time evolution of solvent relaxation, we apply the mode-coupling theory recently developed by Yamaguchi and coworkers [Mol. Phys.101, 1211 (2003)]. The combination of the RISM/mode-coupling theory is used for the calculation of the dynamic response function, SS(t), which measures the relaxation of average energy of the solute-solvent system. SS(t) decays with the Gaussian plus underdamped curves in the time duration of first 1 ps, followed by slow, long-tailed components down to tens of picoseconds. We show that the RISM/mode-coupling framework is applicable rather well for the detailed description of solvation dynamics at the molecular level.

Brownian dynamics simulations of bidisperse hard discs moving in two dimensions in a given steady and homogeneous shear flow are presented close to and above the glass transition density. The stationary structure functions and stresses of shear-melted glass are compared quantitatively to parameter-free numerical calculations of monodisperse hard discs using mode coupling theory within the integration through transients framework. Theory qualitatively explains the properties of the yielding glass but quantitatively overestimates the shear-driven stresses and structural anisotropies.
