Solidification fronts in supercooled liquids: How rapid fronts can lead to disordered glassy solids

We determine the speed of a crystallization (or, more generally, a solidification) front as it advances into the uniform liquid phase after the system has been quenched into the crystalline region of the phase diagram. We calculate the front speed by assuming a dynamical density functional theory (D...
