Abstract
We present molecular-dynamics and energy-minimization calculations for glassy Cu33Y67 and for crystalline Cu-Y alloys with nonadditive Lenna rd-Jones interactions. The results reproduce satisfactorily the x-ray and neutron data on the glass and the structure of the crystalline all oys. The calculations suggest that atomic compressibility or energetic effects concur with atomic-packing constraints to determine the glass structure.
